Slider Straps Dual Shoulder Strap Black

No, the strap on the left shoulder dug into my shoulder so bad it actually left a welt.

Bought to use with my autoharp. Works great.

I bought this for my doubleneck bass. While it has taken some time to get used to it- it very much distributes the weight much better and my shoulder and lower back have been better for it. My only issue is that it makes the reach a bit farther than I'm used to because of how it sits.

I play bass and I have some neck heavy instruments (as well as some instruments that are heavy across the board). I tend to get pain in my left shoulder with a standard strap. The slider strap balances the instrument between your two shoulders and keeps your posture somewhat fixed. It's almost as if you are playing your instrument on a stand. Observations: 1) It's a little bit awkward to put on but you'll get the hang of it, no pun intended. 2) Your instrument will sit differently on your body than it will with a normal strap. For many users this is a feature, for some it might take some adjustment. 3) The construction is consistent with a typical affordable guitar strap... it's not made of super high grade materials. I would give it a higher grade if it had nicer ends. 4) It works fine with Straplocks... in fact, I would encourage you to use it with strap locks, because I think the ends will fatigue if you are frequently taking it on and off of a guitar. At the end of the day, if you suffer from shoulder pain/fatigue you should try this strap, especially for long band rehearsals.

It's a ergonomic guitar strap so it speaks for itself. My guitar player recommended it to me he's used one for years

The secret is to reposition your guitar attachment points...mount the upper attachment peg to the other guitar-body horn and mount the lower peg more to the lower side hip of the guitar body. Doing so, when used with a cross-strap, will perfectly distribute the weight and will leave the neutral position of the neck in perfect standard playing position. Because this step requires drilling, of course I do not do this on a vintage bass...but on my working basses, absolutely. The other essential to me when using a cross-strap, is to use Strap-Locks. Otherwise getting in and out of the cross-strap can be a pain...but with Strap-Locks, I simply first wear the cross strap just right, then click my bass on to it. As a working Pro Casino musician, the cross-strap also gives me more real-estate to mount my wireless body-packs for my In-Ear monitoring, Bass-Wireless, etc. Seriously, by finally evenly distributing the weight across both of my shoulders, this device has transformed my back comfort during 4-hour high-energy casino shows. No more asymmetric one-side load on my shoulders, body, and back. Probably added 20 years to my musician shelf-life. Love it!
