Description
The Chord FR1 is a metal footrest for guitar players who want a stable, comfortable playing position. Resting one foot on a raised plate helps you hold the classical playing posture, lifting the guitar to a natural height and taking strain off your back and shoulders during longer sessions. The build is robust throughout, so it holds up to regular use at home, in lessons or on stage.
Height adjustment runs from 150 to 265mm, giving you a good spread of positions to suit your seat and your body. The foot plate is rubber padded to keep your foot from sliding, and anti-slip feet on the base help the stand stay put on hard floors. When you're done, it folds down to 300 x 115 x 15mm, which packs flat into a gig bag or case pocket, and at 700g it won't weigh you down.
This is a simple, practical bit of kit that does one job well. Whether you play classical, flamenco or just prefer a raised position for fingerstyle work, the FR1 gives you a repeatable setup you can rely on. The metal frame and rubber contact points mean it should serve you for years without fuss.
