tuner help

I'd be interested in this too as I've been considering a set to reduce a neck heavy issue in my Thumb. But around £100 is a lot of money for something that likely might not solve the problem.

I have just bought a new strap, a slighly padded swuede lined jobby that offers more grip to my clothing. After a quick play last night it seems to help a bit, but a longer practice will prove whether it does or not. Previously I had one of those 'Comfort Strapps', with the strechy foam shoulder protection. Whilst it proved comfortable on the shoulder, it was a bit slippy and ended up causing aches and pains elsewhere trying to support the neck with my fretting hand.
