A Load Off My Shoulders

[LisaIs]

This just in, my two straps from Steve. I will take a photo with each so you guys can get an idea. These straps are amazing. This is a win for bass players in the lightweight division.

Here are both straps. I love the neoprene with the special stiching the most. It is way superior over my Neotech brand neoprene strap. The leather strap has a special curve to it that goes better with the players body. They are both top notch. Thanks Steve "Dude" Barr.

 

[Figjam]

Definitely gotta get me one of those neoprene ones. I have one like it from a different brand but it is too long, and my shorter leather strap is less comfortable. Can it go higher than you have it in the picture?

 

[SharonG]

Oh - those look great - I can't wait to try them out!!

Boy, you are tiny, Lisa!!

Yes it can go much higher.

Im shortening my Stephis neo strap so it isnt too long, gonna cut and re stitch part of it.

 

[LisaIs]

OK, I practiced with this strap and it is comfortabulous. The thick padding protected my shoulder from fatigue. Long gig bass players with tired shoulders should PM Steve about this strap.

I must admit I didn't even test out the leather strap yet. I fell in love with the neo one and that was that.

Stevo, thanks again.

acrylic instruments are fun and have great sustain but they are a bit weighty. I need to shut up about heavy instruments now. I sound like I want to play a piece of rice paper.

Yea I took a number of pictures and had to pick one in which I didn't look too dorky.

Dude, is that the Brooklyn Gear strap you sell? Looks wider than my Comfort Strapp. Or is it that Lisa is a tiny gal? Or both?

That's a Brooklyn Gear "Perfect Strap" which is a bit different from the original "Comfort Strap". They're in the midst of switching manufacturers again and the three I sent out to the gurls were the last of the second generation straps. I have to call Adam tomorrow to see if they have the 3rd generation straps in yet.

The leather "S" shaped strap is one of the custom "neck dive cure" straps I have Glenn Cronkhite (Reunion Blues founder) make up to my specs. The "S" shape to them helps out quite a bit on neck heavy basses like on that black bird you're trading in but is unpadded.

Lord knows I've tried and tried to do this and never quite been successful.
