clunkie66 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I'm after a new strap for my MIJ precision. It's quite a bit lighter than my Cort GB4 jazz so the chunky leather strap that I bought for the Cort is too big and uncomfortable on the P. I'm looking at a material strap, does anyone have any suggestions that are light-ish weight and comfy? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I've only used one strap for the last twenty plus years and that's a Comfort Strapp. Very comfortable, light and so far very long lived 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeyboro Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Plus one for comfort strapp. My reserve is still unused! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naxos10 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 If it's material agree with the Comfort strap, if you do consider leather try the Levy's DMP1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I’ve got quite a few straps but I bought this Ibanez BWS90 , one around Christmas and it’s great, it’s really lightweight and comfortable and it grips well , https://www.fxpedal.co.uk/accessories-c31/straps-c172/ibanez-bws90-bass-workshop-strap-p3469 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you use straplocks and if so, which ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has been fine on my fender jazzes and my sandberg tt , but that’s quite light, I don’t use straplocks, but I’ll take some close up pics when I get home if you want 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmaster62 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I have two - Levy's MSS3 because it looks good. Neotech Mega because it helps with weight. I did have a Mono GS1 but sold that for the Neotech since it slid on my shoulder all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I had a Mono until Sunday. I suddenly noticed it had pulled through the leather and was about to completely break off at the upper bout end. And I only use lightweight basses! Neotech seems much better. Marooschick leather ones are nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
