As long as you can play, who cares what strap you have, hang the bass off of you with a bungee cord....wait thats not a bad idea. |

If you really where METAL the the hand of the unholy dark one would burst through a fiery chasm and hold your bass for you in it's taloned, leathery claw.
Of course then you'd owe him. Not recommended.

Something that spreads out the weight of the bass on your back. In metal you gotta do all the dancing with the hair and the bit, so you should take your vitamins and stretch before each set. Don't forget to change your socks. |
