Zusammenfassung:It is a cushion device to be placed in the Cello, Viola da gamba and Double Bass performers' legs. The object of the invention is to optimize the acoustic qualities of the instruments improving qualitatively and quantitatively their sound. It prevents future injuries. It prevents beginners to acquire bad postures and shows them the correct support point of the instrument. This device is characterized by the following pieces: a cushion body (1), and a leg fastening system with a closing and opening system. The cushion body (1) can be made of a plastic substance with acoustic properties that buffer the transmission of the instruments' vibration to the musicians' body. The device is attached to the lower part of the legs and its upper part allows the instrument to rest naturally on the corresponding points of support (12, 13, 14, 15, 16 y 17). The device will be manufactured in different sizes attending to the morphological characteristics of the instrument, and the age and physical constitution of the musician.
