First Claim
Patent Images
1. A sheet music holder, comprising:
- a power-assisted suction device for temporary attachment to a hollow-bodied musical instrument;
wherein said power-assisted suction device engages a single surface of the hollow-bodied musical instrument over a continuous area;
a golpe board having a non-porous first surface and a non-porous second surface;
said first surface of said golpe board being attached to the hollow-bodied musical instrument;
said second surface of said golpe board providing a non-porous surface for temporary attachment of said power-assisted suction device to the musical instrument without marring;
a base clamp ball attached to the power-assisted suction device;
a tray for holding sheets of music for a musician to read during a performance of said musical instrument;
a tray clamp ball attached to said tray; and
a clamp adapted to capture said base clamp ball and said tray clamp ball, wherein said clamp allows adjustment of the tilt and angle of the tray relative to the musical instrument.

Abstract
A sheet music holder comprises a golpe board with a non-porous surface for gluing onto a guitar body with a porous surface, a twist lock power-assisted suction device, a clamp with a single tightening nut, and a sheet tray to hold the sheet music. The twist lock power-assisted suction device allows a user to easily create a strong vacuum attachment that will last for hours so a complete performance will not be interrupted. The golpe board is included where the guitar body has a porous surface that would otherwise frustrate the suction attachment. The double-ball and socket clamp and arm allows a variety of positioning possibilities for the user to best read the sheet music in the tray.
