Just found this pic on facebook of myself from last thanksgiving weekend with my NYC, I'm with my band Blue Essence, opening for John Legend...first time playing a gig with an SVT Classic Rig (soundcrew's, not mine), nice and thick with just the right amount of aggression:

Hey Chef,

Do you use the 2.5 or the 4 inch Italia straps? Been looking for a good leather strap.
My nylon straps just slide too much and cause a little neck dive.
Especially since I have the hipshot D-tuners installed on my Standard 4's.

dang fine bass you have there.
well done.

opening for John Legend must have been great fun:)
i've never played a sadowsky thru a gen-u-wine SVT; but I'd imagine that's a very fine pairing.

Yea it's a pretty killer amp, reputation well earned I'd say. Rolled off the VTC on some songs...The thump and drive from that thing was unreal.

Yea that was a great show, everybody was on their A-game that night...John Legend's band is ridiculous! Was talking to his bassist (Kenneth Wright, young guy from Philly I believe) before they went on, he's pretty cool, amazing playing.

Yup, it's Italia. I actually use it in reverse (suede side up, leather side down). Yea I highly recommend them as far as good, quality leather goes. However I'm currently looking for a nice quality 4" padded leather strap of similar color to mine.

BTW: After I finished up playing, Kenneth's bass tech pulled me aside and was like "Hey, just in case John's bassist has a problem with his bass for whatever reason, is it possible for him to use yours?"

Guess Roger's work speaks for itself :-)
