Setup Instructions
- Unpack the Support: Carefully remove the Oasis OH-28 Guitar Support from its packaging and carry bag.
- Positioning: Sit in your preferred playing chair. Place the wider, contoured side of the support onto your thigh. The support is designed to conform to the shape of your leg for stability.
- Guitar Placement: Gently rest the lower bout of your guitar onto the top surface of the support. Adjust the position of the support on your thigh until the guitar is at a comfortable height and angle for playing. The OH-28 is designed to raise the guitar by approximately 5.5 inches.
- Stability Check: Ensure the guitar is stable on the support and does not wobble. Make minor adjustments to your seating position or the support's placement on your thigh as needed.
Note: The support is designed to be used on either the left or right thigh, depending on your playing style and preference. Experiment to find the most comfortable and ergonomic setup for your body and instrument.
Operating Instructions
Once the Oasis OH-28 Guitar Support is correctly positioned on your thigh and your guitar is resting securely on it, you can begin playing. The support is designed to maintain the guitar's position, allowing your hands to move freely and reducing the need to actively hold the guitar in place.
- Posture: Focus on maintaining a relaxed and upright posture. The support helps to bring the guitar to you, rather than you bending to the guitar.
- Movement: The support allows for natural movement while playing. If you need to adjust your position, gently lift the guitar, reposition the support, and then place the guitar back.
- Removal: To remove the support, simply lift your guitar off the support and then remove the support from your thigh.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and proper function of your Oasis OH-28 Guitar Support, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface of the support with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the material.
- Storage: When not in use, store the guitar support in its provided carry bag to protect it from dust, scratches, and direct sunlight. Store in a cool, dry place.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the support for any signs of wear or damage. If any damage is observed, discontinue use and contact customer support.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Oasis OH-28 Guitar Support, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Issue: The guitar feels unstable on the support.
Solution: Ensure the support is placed firmly on your thigh. Adjust your seating position and the angle of the support until the guitar rests securely. The contoured shape should provide a stable base. - Issue: The support slides on my clothing.
Solution: Certain fabrics may cause the support to slide. Try adjusting the placement on your thigh or consider wearing clothing with more grip. The material of the support is designed to offer some friction. - Issue: Discomfort during use.
Solution: Re-evaluate your posture and the position of the support. The goal is to achieve a relaxed playing position. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size support for your body type (OH-28 is the Large version).
