My luthier had a concern about the pressure produced by the Gitano on the side of the guitar and so built a small horizontal bar that attaches with either glue or carpet underlay to the Gitano itself and because it (the bar) extends to the edges of the guitar side,it distributes the pressure more evenly. It's been very successful to date. If the Gitano itself comes off, I've found that a wipe of vinegar on the plastic square attached to my guitar, prior to re-attaching the Gitano works great. The bar has come off a couple of times, so I'm still working on that.
