Product Review - Castiv Guitar Grip for Media Players

I was recently sent this device called the "Sidekick" which is media player holder to evaluate. I tried it out with my Ipod Touch and an old smart phone for my test. Please forgive me for the poor pictures since I had some issues with my normal camera and had to use the camera on my phone to take these. I will try and replace these pictures soon so you can get a better idea how the device works.

I used several different styles of guitars and neck arrangements to see how the device might deal with various string arrangements and angles. It held on tight to all the guitars I tried and the only thing I noticed was with heavier gauge strings it didn't seem to be as tight. With all the guitar related apps available this thing could really come in handy during practice sessions.
