BENEFITS: Both feet stay on the floor; Your back remains straight, for a proper center of the gravity; You sit naturally, no twisting or bending; Your arms are more relaxed; The support is adjustable to match the guitar neck angle to your natural position; Foam leg padding for increased comfort; Non-mar rubber suction cups securely grip your guitar; Easy to follow instructions included; The bottom of the guitar is not dampened by your body; The guitar faces to the listener, yielding a ideal sound pattern…
The ErgoPlay Tappert model is an adjustable, sturdy, solid metal support that ensures beginners use the correct position, while helping reduce stress and strain for any player. The supports do not work with Ovation guitars or very thin guitars. The guitar needs to be at least 3 1/2″ wide for the suction cups to attach. Stickers are included if there is any problem with the suction cups not sticking well. They do not hurt the guitar finish.
Hi, I’m Allen Mathews.
I started as a folk guitarist, then fell in love with classical guitar in my 20’s. Despite a lot of practice and schooling, I still couldn’t get my music to flow well. I struggled with excess tension. My music sounded forced. And my hands and body were often sore. I got frustrated, and couldn’t see the way forward. Then, over the next decade, I studied with two other stellar teachers – one focused on the technical movements, and one on the musical (he was a concert pianist). In time, I came to discover a new set of formulas and movements. These brought new life and vitality to my practice. Now I help guitarists find more comfort and flow in their music, so they play more beautifully.

I came on board three months ago and I’m loving it more than ever. I have maintained my practice pattern. I’m sticking wholeheartedly with the program as written. That makes it easy to see what I NEED to work on rather than just playing the shiny places I’ve gone beyond…..I’ve learned to focus 100% on what I’m doing that very minute….I’m developing strength in my left hand...I spend time with the videos in the evenings and always find something more to help me. I’m not looking for info anywhere else. Everything I need is right here in The Woodshed. You say “Jump” and I say “How high.” I’m so grateful I found you. You speak in a language I understand.

Hi Allen, I am a Dutch guy who plays classical guitar (solo and together with a flute player). Unfortunately I have been suffering from focal dystonia since begin 2016. Of course I tried physical therapy which didn't help… But I tried some of your [technique] lessons (I had teachers before but I was never taught your techniques) and to my big surprise the nasty feeling in the back of my right hand which pulls my index finger upward was gone! So now I practice your lessons. Anyway, I am very happy to have found you on the internet. Thanks very much!
