Hi All,
Just managed to bring in afew pieces of JP's armrest from the states... available in rosewood and ebony colour, in the junior size(which is suitable for all guitar shape apart from jumbo) and also the slimline series...
FYI...
"By placing your forearm on the top of the guitar, you lose between 15% and 20% of the power and projection of the top of the guitar--and we are talking as much about the clarity of the notes and quality of the sound as we are about the volume!
The John Pearse® Armrest will give your arm a more comfortable contour over the edge of the guitar while helping to protect the top of the guitar from perspiration. Most importantly, however, it allows you to play normally while it gently lifts your forearm clear of the top--allowing you to experience all that your guitar can give!" ~ taken off web
personally, i liked the look of the armrest on my guitars, had a slimline one on my hummingbird silverburst and a normal junior one on my 814ce. Both in ebony.. will post some pic soon! for now...
For those who fear that the tape will damage your instrument, fear not! i've had the armrest on my 814 since 2008, and till now, it can be taken off as an when i want, leaving no stain!
here's some pics:
Priced at $45 each... sms me at 97710159 if interested to find out more
