Hey TBird, since you're the one with the massive flock of birds  is there any of them that balance better than others?

I think where my right hand rests (on the bridge) and the strap length have a lot to do with it - that and being primarily a pick player.

Not to get off topic, but I am absolutely loving my 2013 Outback! What a great car! It is a great gear hauler with the seat back protectors installed. I'm really enjoying it!

Glad you like that new one.
