D'Addario Guitar Dock - Adjustable Clamp Guitar Neck Rest - Fits to Any Flat Surface with Edge - Rotates for Multiple Angles

I like this better than the rubber Planet Waves guitar rest, which I also have. This one does a better job keeping your guitar from falling off to the side. Moving the body of the guitar slightly does not have a tendency to move the neck. In fact, the body of the guitar can sit slightly off to the side and still be held securely in place. I have mine attached to the lip of an end table next to the chair where I like to play. The screw clamp is small and not extremely heavy duty, but it is sturdy enough to resist being dislodged inadvertently. You should be able to attach the clamp to any lip with about 1/2-3/4" of material. The yoke where the neck of the guitar sits is rubber coated and should not mar the neck's finish. The prongs of the yoke have a tendency to pluck the strings a bit when you remove the guitar, so best mute your amp beforehand. The prongs close up tight enough that the guitar is not likely to fall out by accident. I will probably pick up another but I think it is a bit overpriced. 15-20 dollars would be more reasonable. Still, if it keeps you from breaking the neck of an expensive guitar, then no doubt the cost will be worthwhile.

Works as advertised, does what it is supposed to do. Not as ungainly as the alligator one. Some people have complained that the "fingers" are too long and "twang" the strings when you put the instrument in or take it out. The fingers are stiff rubber, cutting 3/8" of an inch off of each one with sturdy scissors cured the problem.

Pretty good for what it is, I use it for a bass guitar and the little flexible rubber arms that hold the neck in the cradle kept snagging my bass strings. I took my side snips that I use when restringing and trimmed about 1/2" off of each one and now it is perfect!

I liked the guitar dock so much I bought 2. One for home and one for work.

It is really handy to be able to place this guitar rest just about anywhere you need it. The rest is very sturdy and locks onto a table top tightly. The flexible fingers that hold the neck into the rest are not very strong. A small child or pet could easily knock the guitar out of the rest. A close look at the design revealed a small hole and a notch intended for a locking strap (not supplied or available). A quick fix was to push a large rubber band half way through the hole and slip the two lose ends over the notch, securely locking the neck in place. I like this rest so much that I bought another one for a friend.

I have a couple of the smaller Planet Waves neck holders that I keep in my instrument cases for that "emergency lean" - and they're great for what they are - rubber coasters that keep your leaning guitar from slipping This device is a lot more substantial, since it clamps down to a surface and firmly holds the guitar in a way that it can't slip out. Of course, all that come with the price of less portability (3" X 3" X 3.5") and added dollars. I have found it's ideal as a holder attached to the mixing desk in my studio, since it doesn't take up as much space as a floor stand. Note that the jaws on the clamp will only open up to 2 inches, so this won't work on anything thicker than that. The neck holder swivels to any position, so you can clamp the thing to a mic stand if you like -- I prefer the more sturdy clamp-it-to-the-amp method, since mic stands have been known to tip over. The clamp is strong enough to grab the 1/2 inch lip protruding from my amp and provide a really solid stand. Well done, again, D'Addario!

This is a practical item to use with a desk or a table of appropriate height. It does hold your guitar, but there are a couple minor annoyances that made me drop it a star. The plate the yoke is attached to swivels and feels sketchy. If it were just one, solid unit it would be more stable. As it is, it really only gives you about an inch of height adjustment with the swivel, so I fail to see it usefulness. I'm guessing manufacturing would be cheaper too if it were one piece. Would also like to see softer surfaces on the plate holding the yoke and the yoke itself. Remember this only stops a guitar from falling, it does not protect the bottom of the guitar from the surface upon which it is resting.

It works, but it’s not as sturdy as I would have hoped. Plus, the way the headstock is seated, whether it’s 3x3 or 6 inline, at least one tuner is going to get turned out of tune. Not a big deal but annoying. Overall, it’s ok and it works.

Un support guitare qui peut se mettre partout. J'en utilise un sur le bord de table et un sur le côté de mon baffle 2x12 pour poser la guitare en répète. C'est nikel. Ça économise un stand guitare et de la place surtout.

Es muy buena idea, sujeta bien la guitarra y permite tenerla segura fijando la pieza a mesas, estanterías bajas, etc., así que si no siempre tocas en el mismo sitio es muy útil. No le pongo 5 estrellas por dos cosas: la primera es que creo que las pestañas que sujetan la guitarra no son muy robustas, habrá que ver qué tal aguantan el uso; la segunda es que deja marcas en maderas blandas. Tiene una parte con puntos de plástico más o menos duro para que no se mueva y me marcó una mesa de pino, si esa parte fuese de goma lisa no habría problemas y tampoco se movería, así que pueden mejorar el diseño. En todo caso, con poner un cartón más o menos grueso entre la pieza y la mesa se evita este problema, pero si lo compráis tenedlo en cuenta.

This is a neat little item that's light and portable, and that screws on vertically or horizontally. It's quick and easy to attach, and holds my guitar securely in place. Although bought for when I was travelling, I find myself constantly using it at home. So nice to keep my guitar within easy reach - I can just grab it when I want to play something, rather than having to trek to the guitar stand in another room. I hesitated to buy this dock because of the price, but I'm glad I did as I use it much more than expected 😊

Nicely made and really useful...
