I have a McClung armrest for my Phoenix mandolin and I really like the way it makes my picking hand move around the mandolin. There's only one problem- it doesn't clamp quite right to the top/back. It will occasionally fall off while I'm playing. I'm pretty sure I have the armrest tension right. I think that is because the phoenix mandolin has a beveled top and back instead of the more typical binding arrangement. Try as I might, I can't think of a good way to make it fit better. I'm pretty handy with tools (was a professional furniture maker for a while) anyone have any ideas?
