Whether you're doing a full setup, swapping strings, adjusting the truss rod, or cleaning the fretboard, you need a stable, padded surface that keeps the instrument from sliding and absorbs any accidental contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis instrument repair mat and neck rest set is designed for exactly that. The non-slip thickened repair mat (105 × 45 cm) gives you a generous, cushioned work surface for guitars, basses, violins, and other stringed instruments — large enough to support the full body during most repair and maintenance tasks. The dual-purpose neck rest holds the neck securely at a comfortable working angle, keeping the instrument stable while you work on the headstock, nut, or tuning pegs. Available separately so you can choose what you need. 🔧\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e✅ Why Players \u0026amp; Repair Techs Choose This
