I bought this so I could rest my bass against my speaker cab without needing to bring an extra stand and take up more "real estate" than needed.
I am ok with setting the body of my bass on the floor. It stands on the strap button and strap in this position. On a hard floor I might get some wear on the strap button; but that is a minor piece to replace and no problem to me.
My speaker cab is the right height so the Guitar Rest on top grabs the neck pertfectly up against the head.
Only problem was that I felt the rubber material of the guitar rest didnt contact properly on the rough surface of the cab, and I was afraid it would slide ...
I am sure it sits better on a smooth surface like a table or desk.
I solved this easily; I found there screws of the right size and just fastened the guitar rest to the cab permanently.
Even this is not the intended way to use it, it works brilliantly for me! So my rating is five stars if you do as I did. Three stars for stability without my screws :-)

Guitar Rest
Raymond588 09.12.2017
These things are great, I mean really great. I've been gigging with mine now for over a year and it's not let me down yet. Just place it on the edge om my amp. It's non slip so it won't come off unless you are ultra clumsy and rest my bass on it. Saves carrying a heavy metal stand around. Also, when I got mine, because I bought it with some other stuff it was postage free and a lot cheaper than I could buy in the UK. You can not buy from a better music store than Thomann any way. They are such friendly people. Any queries you have if you send them an email you get a reply the next working day. I Love them.

Great little idea
Adrian918 15.01.2021
I bought this on a whim as a little extra on a bigger order.
I think it's great. I use it in the pub when i'm playing in sessions around a table.
Handy for not loosing your pint too.

Νο1 Guitar rest

I got rid of all the guitar bases in the room that took up space, I tried this product and it just goes everywhere - it goes everywhere - quite good construction - it does not break - you wash comfortably - there are no negatives ...

rest assured
Anonymous 03.04.2014
The Planet Waves GR-01 guitar rest is a great invention. It is small enough to have it in your guitar case and still very safely holding your guitar. All that is needed is a flat surface on a chair, table, even an amp may do (haven?t tried that as I play acoustic and do not have an amp). It actually needs a certain high to be save but I always found such surfaces. The stand is definitely not meant as a permanent stand. It would work but the clever thing is that you have it always with you. I have it in the drawer of my desk so I can take the guitar there without the need of carrying the actual guitar stand there. Quiet convenient. The price is great, makes a nice present for other guitar players too.

Great ad-hoc guitar rest
Konrad.P. 27.05.2021
Would have been better with some addhesive or more sticky rubber on the bottom. But just have to add this my self. But good value and works as expected.

useful guitar holder
Citizen Arcana 01.01.2015
I ordered 2 for ease of being able to prop guitars around the room and these certainly do a good job of holding guitars in place. The rubber holds to table well and guitar is safe/doesnt slip.
Only minor negative was that one of the Rests had a slight deformation in the rubber moulded shape but this purely a minor aesthetic issue for a useful item that doesnt take up a lot of space to do its job.

Great for the gig bag
Liam Q. 19.06.2014
Bought this as a novelty item but has turned out to be very useful. I carry one of these in the pocket of my bass gig bag. On many a pub gig space is tight and there's no room to put out a stand. I sit this on top of my TC cab and it stops my bass falling over.

Great litlle gadget

I use this to rest my guitar while i change to the bass during home recording. Its very stable because of the rubbery texture. The only con i have found is the fact that you can easily move it accidentally when a guitar is not resting on it but you can always glue it or double-face it on your desk.
