Comfort Strapp's - What size?

Sign in to disble this ad
So I'm in the market for one of these bad boys. Just wondering which length would be best suited for me. I like to wear my bass realtively high, pretty much Victor height.



Should I go short, long, or extra long?

Most probably short, but why don't you just set your current strap to the height you like it, measure the length and compare it to the length of the short and long comfort strapps? Their lengths are at their site.

Wow so simple Thanks, I did that and from lock to lock it was 38". I'm guessing the 1" less wouldn't make to much different if I went for the short, heck I can even wear it higher!

Isn't it annoying that it's either less than 37 or more than 38"? Anyway, I just measured mine and it's 38" anyway, so if you'd have no problem to wear it even higher the short one is the way to go. I bought a short one, but I realised I wanted it JUST a little bit lower. I'm a big guy so it looks funny on me that high. I eventually ordered a long one, I hope the long one's shortest setting will be exactly what I'm looking for.

I wear my bass up high. I own the short model and it goes plenty low enough for me.
