We're all going to need one of those sooner or later. How about a harp guitar walker?

I have had to use a cane for over a year now and an 8 string version of this would be a great thing to have. I think you would need a little snap on leather protector/cover for the sound board and strings if you were going to use it everyday.

Maybe get the Harp Guitar Walker upgrade in 5 or 10 years.
