While plastic, but well made. Coating the metal holding arms very good, especially at the ends. Fresh out of the box makes the part an excellent impression. Unfortunately, someone has meant having to reinvent the wheel and instead has a rotatable fork two independently rotatable from each bracket installed. The purpose should be well aware that due to the static friction, the weight of the guitar together draws the bow. But that only works sometimes. Even the manufacturer makes in the manual limitations. Sassy, a Tele is displayed in the manual. The holding in the holder only until you push EASY, it slips on the mechanics. A Johnson resonator with traditional headstock (3 + 3) slides without contact simply by the mechanics. A SG holds (at last a sense of achievement) if they are not moved. Without guitar is to close the bracket. If you do not want to 'push in the neck of the guitar with violence or may squirm into the side (at the risk of the wall contact of body and headstock), leaving only the two-hand operation. Especially inconvenient when the holder is mounted slightly higher or you prefer to stabilize the guitar with both hands or both. Due to technical overdevelopment as an end in itself for me unfortunately unusable. The star is only for the good workmanship. Those who like to hang his guitar to the tuners or a 7-string has to accommodate, the part should bring. Otherwise, there are better.
