Wrist-Rest String-Protector for your double neck Pedal Steel Guitar.
It is made with GENUINE REAL LEATHER.
It comes with everything you need to use on your Double Neck guitar to attach it, which is self sticking Velcro. So you don’t have to make holes in your guitar to attach it.

The Wrist-Rest may be flipped out of the way when using your C-6 neck. Or if you prefer you may just pull the Velcro attached to the Wrist-Rest to detach it. The stick part of the Velcro stays stuck to your guitar for the next time that you need to use the Wrist-Rest.
There is a small dowel on the bottom of Wrist-Rest String Protector. The dowel is to keep the Wrist-Rest in place so that it will not slide around as you move your wrist while playing the E-9 neck. The dowel comes attached to the Wrist-Rest with a solid brass screw so that it will not corrode from use.

The Wrist-Rest String-Protector keeps the oils & sweat from your wrist & arm off the strings & keeps the strings from gouging your arm and wrist.
Buy it Now for $9.99 & get FREE SHIPPING IN THE USA ONLY.
If you would like to see pictures I can send them in email.

Not to rain on your parade, but I use a terrycloth wrist wrap from a tennis store. 2 for $5.00.

Hi Jim,
Don't worry about raining on our parade as we have a quality item that seems to be very successful.

Gary recently bought a Wrist-Rest from us on eBay and agreed to let me use his testimonial as follows:
Gary says that our invention of the Wrist-Rest is the answer to a problem that has been around for a long time. He says that it is a great idea and he wishes that the metal on his guitar had had our Wrist-Rest years ago, then it might still be shinny. Therefore, he feels that it will be a hit.

The terrycloth wrist wrap from a tennis store is a good idea, too, but you'd have to remember to bring it with you & you'd also have to remember to wash it or you'd be putting a dirty sweaty item on your wrist!
Personally I don't like to have things on me like that. They seem to just make me hotter.
With our Wrist-Rest it stays attached to the guitar unless you want to remove it & it lasts for years.
I don't take mine off of the guitar & it is very nice looking as it has red Velcro & red decorative stitching on the edge.
We have them in different colors to match the colors of guitars. Of course the leather is tan but the Velcro & decorative stitching are either red, blue, green or black. You can see the pictures on eBay in the next 5 hours, that's when the listing ends. We may relist at a later time.
Anyway, it's good that you use something to protect that valuable guitar.
Thanks for your input.
Roland

Roland,
I'd like to see a photo of this item. Sounds like a cool accessory. For those that think $9.99 is to much to spend on a $3500 Steel, you can always use feminine napkins, they come with their own adhesive strips and they are cheaper and more hygienic than a terrycloth wrist wrap.

Hi JR,
Great suggestion about the feminine napkins. LOL!!!
I can send you pictures in your email if you like. I have several. My email is ecf@consolidated.net
I'll need your email address to send the pictures.
They are listed in eBay right now. It's #7347494171 Just type that number in the search & it will come up. It only on for a couple of hours more now.
If you'd rather not send your email address, we will probably list the Wrist-Rest on eBay again soon.
We sure appreciate your interest.
Thanks,
Roland

I viewed your pictures on Ebay. It looks like you make a nice product that a lot of folks could really use. (I play a single-neck guitar, though.)

Don't let negative posts by negative people discourage you. I don't understand why someone would feel compelled to "rain on your parade".

This is a great accessory and simple to install. Took all of 3 seconds. Really does relax the right hand and keeps me in the right playing position, just in front of the pickups. When I change necks, flipping it out of the way is simple and it stays attached to the guitar. Used to wipe my guitar every now and then, but no more. Everything remains dry and the wrist stays cool. That little peg to lock it into position gives it a finished touch. It’s well worth the $10 dollars. I did note my guitar player seems to have developed a slight envy but has no where to attach one. If we ever play one of the two nudist colony here in San Diego County, that only hire country bands, perhaps he could attach one to the bottom of his guitar. Just a side note, a friend who played there did say seeing folks dance by with only their hats and boots on does throw his steel pickin’ off. Oh what the professional has to suffer through.
