PORTABLE ONE PIECE MAINTENANCE MAT WITH NECK SUPPORT
The present invention relates to a portable one piece maintenance mat with neck support. The maintenance mat has a neck support cushion having a having a centrally located indent on the topside adapted to receive the neck of a stringed instrument. The neck support is attached at the proximal end of the mat to the bottom side of said neck support. Closures are attached to the distal end of the mat.

MUSICAL INSTRUMENT REST
A musical instrument rest for attachment to an instrument having a neck. The rest provides a buffer between the instrument and a surface. The rest has an instrument side, surface side and a thickness between said instrument side and said surface side. The surface side being adapted to contact the surface in order to prevent damage to the surface. The thickness being compressible and wherein the rest is adapted to be attached to the musical instrument in the area of the neck. The weight of the instrument pressing the rest against the wall surface provides a frictional force to hold the rest and the headstock against the wall surface without damaging the wall surface. The frictional force will prevent the instrument from sliding or falling down. The compressibility of the rest will prevent damage to the wall surface.
