A support device for supporting a musical instrument, comprising:
- a base, the base including a first side portion and a second side portion;
- and
- a support body rotatably coupled to the base, the support body including a first support surface and a second support surface, the first support surface defining a channel in the support body, the second support surface being substantially planar,
- wherein the support body is configured to rotate between at least a first position and a second position around an axis intersecting the first side portion and the second side portion, each of the first side portion and the second side portion extend beyond all of the support body in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the second position, and the support body extends beyond each of the first side portion and the second side portion in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the first position.
A support device for supporting a neck of a musical instrument, comprising:
- a base, the base including a first side portion and a second side portion;
- a support body rotatably coupled to the base, the support body including a first support surface and a second support surface, the first support surface defining a channel in the support body, the second support surface being substantially planar;
- and
- at least one pin for rotatably coupling the support body to the base, the at least one pin engaging the support body and at least one of the first side portion or the second side portion,
- wherein the support body is configured to rotate between at least a first position and a second position around an axis defined by the at least one pin, each of the first side portion and the second side portion extend beyond all of the support body in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the second position, and the support body extends beyond each of the first side portion and the second side portion in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the first position.
A support device for supporting a neck of a musical instrument, comprising:
- a base, the base including a first side portion and a second side portion;
- a support body rotatably coupled to the base, the support body including a first support surface and a second support surface, the first support surface defining a channel in the support body, the second support surface being substantially planar;
- and
- means for rotatably coupling the support body to the base, the rotatably coupling means engaging the support body and at least one of the first side portion or the second side portion,
- wherein the support body is configured to rotate between at least a first position and a second position around an axis intersecting the first side portion and the second side portion, each of the first side portion and the second side portion extend beyond all of the support body in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the second position, and the support body extends beyond each of the first side portion and the second side portion in a direction opposite the base when the support body is in the first position.
