About the Atlas
The Atlas C-1 is a stainless-steel precision tool engineered to apply targeted mechanical pressure, countering the typical string force of 130-140 lbs. exerted at the vulnerable headstock/neck junction of (3-on-3) six-string guitars tuned to standard pitch (440Hz). When properly fitted, the Atlas C-1 creates a net force of zero, achieving static equilibrium exactly where it’s needed to provide comprehensive protection.
The innovative design of the Atlas C-1 accommodates all (3-on-3) six-string guitars with nut widths up to 50mm and break angles from 10 to 28 degrees. For full-time protection, it’s recommended to keep the Atlas C-1 on the instrument when not in use—whether on a stand, with slackened strings, in storage, or during transport.
