Impressive Esperanza Spaulding footage

I saw her on that tour, one of the best shows I've ever witnessed! She used the three back up singers almost like a horn line. There was a part of the show where she just huddled with the drummer and guitarist and improvised, mind blowing. There are a few shows I've seen in my life that are so good I almost leave the planet, this was one of them!

The guitar player is playing what appears to be a mid 70’s Gibson SG. I have a 1974 exactly like it except mine is a tobacco-burst.

I realize this isn't the focus of this post, but what is she using in place of a traditional strap to hold that bass on her?

Its like a belt harness.
