Abstract

Musical instrument accessories are provided that can include a substantially planar board at least partially complimenting the rear face of the musical instrument. A portion of the board can define at least one substantially planar leg coupled to the board and moveable between at least two positions with respect to the board, the first position wherein the leg is received within the board to complete the board, and the second position wherein the leg is extended from the board to form a support for the musical instrument. The accessory can also include one or more adhesion elements along one side of the board. Methods for supporting a musical instrument are provided that can include adhering the board to a rear face of a musical instrument, storing the musical instrument in a case with the leg in the first position, and supporting the musical instrument with the leg in the second position.
