Michelle Roper Thanks Michelle. I've watched this in the past. Brad's review discusses the original Le Support. The new one is the Le Support Voyager ,which is a smaller , more portable version which Thomas claims to be 70% as effective as the original. I currently have the Guitar Lift which is not as stable as I'd like since it doesn't contact both legs...

Barney Hi Barney
My apologies for the mix up. I looked at this guitar lift and I agree it is big and bulky. I personally use Guitar Lift. Which is similar. I have the medium size and it's not that bad to carry around. It fits into my music bad with my music. Good luck and please post your thoughts if you get the Le Support Voyager. I would love to know your thoughts.
Cheers

Michelle Roper Thanks for sharing your thoughts Michelle!

I got one a few months ago. Best guitar support I have seen in 63 years of playing. More stable, and it seems to make the guitar sound better because the human body is isolate from the back of the guitar. I got the strap also, but I did not find any improvement from the strap, so I just use the Le Support as is.

John Mardinly John- Is your the original large one, or the smaller "voyager" version?
If you also have the Guitarlift, how does it compare?
Thanks for your advice!!

When I bought it, there was only one size. I have used over the years just my knee (terrible), the cushion (better but wobbly), Ergo play (better yet, but the suction cups destroyed the French polish on my Velasquez, and now Le Support. I noticed that many students at ASU also use Le Support, and after watching the video I decided to try it, and love it.

John Mardinly Thanks John for describing your experience with these supports. Much appreciated!

Oh, I didn't know there is a new one! I haven't had the time to properly adjust my regular support yet, something I'd like to tackle soon!

Hi Barney,
I was very curious about this product. Since I had some scrap of plexiglass in the garage, I wanted to test it out first by building a similar stand. I only bought some standard suction cups and secured them with wire (see image attached in the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z_g2FuGa5CVUY4WEOk8ZYCWn9hGuNqpQ/view?usp=sharing).
I have to say, it's very very convenient! The Viloteau stand also has the plus option of using a strap to keep the guitar perfectly still without using your hands, giving you even more precise control over your guitar. I think I'll buy the original one in the future.Cheers,
Tommy
