Greetings,

My Carter S-10 has a delightful little shelf that is just beggin' for a pad... Surprised
anyone have a source where I can get one? I did not want the extra weight of an "SD-10" but this seems like a nice compromise.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Landon

Check locally for a business that recovers furniture,boat,car seats etc. as they can usually make one easily for very little.

I had a guy that recovers boat and car interiors redo my pac-a-seat and it's still doing great after three years.

I've often wondered, how are those pads attached to the body of the guitar?

Lee - Unless you glue them on, which isn't recommended, the cabinet must be drilled in at least 3 places to hold the pad on.

I even added a little pad to my GFI Economy that I use in Church every week, I like the pad, it makes the guitar look better [that may only be my observation though?] & I am lazy I like to rest my arms on it from time to time. My other SD-10 of course has a nice factory pad on it with 6 pedals & 5 knees.

You can see the pad similar to what Jim is talking about by going to http://www.donblood.com/interest.htm
and scrolling down to see the pictures.

Thanks Jim, I hope the armrest is still working out for you.

What Gary Shepard said.

I made this one in a couple hours. Two screws through the cabinet hold it on.

I sure miss this little axe anyone know where it is?

We have them for many different popular brand guitars. Quarter,Half and full width. Professionally built by a major manufacturer.

(And for Jack Stoner, we have a pad for both necks)
