Untie the half hitch in the cover rope at the middle of the bentside,
and unthread the rope as far as the front of the instrument, leaving it
running loosely through the loop.
Now, flip the instrument over into playing position, and find its correct
location on the stand top dowels.
Attach the instrument to the stand with the tiedown bolts, if fitted.
These bolts enable the instrument to be repositioned within a room or onstage
with just two people lifting. |
