Euphonium Right Hand Keeper "Registered Utility Model No. 3252039" Colors: Black, Cocoa, Beige, Light Gray, Old Blue, Khaki, Smoky Pink (from top in photo 2) Please specify your desired color in the comments section when ordering. ~Supports the right hand from the right side during euphonium performance~ The euphonium is an instrument where the left hand supports the instrument and the right hand lightly rests its fingers on the pistons. However, because the instrument weighs about 4-5 kg, it's difficult to support it with the left hand alone, and many players end up supporting it with their right hand as well, resulting in an unnatural hand position. This not only makes it difficult to move the fingers but can also lead to hand injuries. To solve this, we have devised a strap that supports the right hand from the right side. How to use it is simple. Place the strap under the hand rest and around the thick tube on the right side, then secure it with the Velcro to form a loop. There are two ways to use it: over the back of the hand (with the thumb outside the strap (photo 4)) or around the wrist. When using it around the wrist, find a comfortable spot around the wrist (photos 5-6). At this time, adjust the length of the strap so that your right hand is perpendicular to the arrangement of the pistons. It's best not to make it too tight. We especially recommend this for beginners because we want them to learn the correct way to hold the euphonium from the start. Also, using this strap increases stability during performance. ◎ for standing performances ★The strap is designed to improve the posture when playing the euphonium and is not intended to suspend or hold the instrument itself. Never hold the instrument body with the strap. ★The strap can be washed, keeping it clean. Wash it in a laundry net, shape it, and dry it thoroughly in a well-ventilated place. ★The inventor makes these by hand. We make them carefully, but please understand that there may be variations in quality. ★The diagonal stitching of the quilting may come undone over time, but this does not affect the performance. ★If you experience any pain in your hand while using the strap, discontinue use immediately.
