"Guitar Armor has introduced a new product line that has been carefully designed and now, introduced to the market as a simple way of keeping a guitar looking as new as possible.

Guitar Armor Inc. was founded a little over a year ago by a couple of guitar playing buddies who have always had a great fascination for the instrument, one of whom has actually been playing the guitar since the age of seven. They decided one day to find a way to protect a guitar from marks and scratches it is susceptible to, and where a pick guard is just not able to get the job done.

They went to work on creating something that would work for them and that they would be able to count on to protect their instruments. What they came up with after much thought, trial and error, is something that could be regarded as a breakthrough in guitar protection.

They were so happy with the results from this new creation that they decided to make it available to others. Their company aim is to make Guitar Armor "available in every store possible and within convenient grasp of anyone who owns a guitar".

The Guitar Armor kit includes four pieces of clear urethane film that is placed above and below the guitar strings, a piece for the center of the back of a guitar and a universal piece to be placed in any other vulnerable area on the guitar.

Guitar Armor is virtually invisible after application and will keep new finishes looking good, and older finishes protected from further damage. It is designed to be easily removed and not leave a residue when peeled off the surface of the guitar."

From the Oasis website:

"Guitar Armorª

Classical guitars, with their delicate finishes, are easily damaged by fingernails. Guitar Armorª, made from static cling vinyl, will protect the finish without requiring any adhesive. Guitar Armorª is applied before playing the instrument and removed after practicing. It can be reused over and over again.
