Perhaps the most brutally honest and true statement ever to be posted on an Internet forum EVER.

I'm glad you've had a good experience. I've played a lot of instruments since my first Sears guitar in the spring of 1975, and I've had balanced instruments, neck heavy instruments, body heavy instruments, and all sorts of straps. A lot of time, a good wide strap can keep the instrument secure, but sometimes there is just a wrong weight bias on the instrument.
