Thanks Snojones

this post is a year old now. [br]no more neck spasms.

current situation.

Concert guitar was not a big issue but now I play with an acoustic Parlour

very nice Faith Naked Mercury

Still play seated, with a strap.

left foot on a step and legs wide with shoulder of guitar on the left leg, sound hole pretty central. [br]Think it's described as cello legs.

Also using a music stand so whichever lesson or tabs I am using is to the front and at a better height.

This is my main position and I have had no further issues but I still sometimes try playing off my right leg.

I can now do this for a time but the near classical cello legs is where I'm more comfortable.

Never going to hit the stage so I can be happy with this seated position. [br]Dave
