I use this strap with my 7 string and it provides adequate support for the weight of the guitar. It’s nicely padded and well made. Definitely needs to be broken in for a bit.

Ideal for bassist or guitarists with bad shoulders!

The strap is perfect! Balances your bass or guitar perfectly even if it's on the neck heavy side! And the wideness and padding makes it comfortable for bass players and guitarists with bad shoulders! Id highly recommend this strap for sure!

Holds on tight fits comfortably

This wide padded strap made wearing my bass much more comfortable, and dramatically decreased fatigue... inherently increasing the time I could play before needing to set it down due to a tired shoulder!
If you feel like your guitar is a little heavy or out of balance... and puts a kink in your neck... this may be your fix!!
Also... the strap lock end holds on real nice and tight. no worries of it falling off!

Excessively wide -- 3"
By: Mr. Wonderful

Product Review
I should have read the specs on this prior to ordering. It's reasonably comfortable, but at 3" wide, it starts working its way onto the side of your neck when playing.
Made with pride by our friends in Canada & does indeed appear well made. I surmise it's simply personal preference, but just way too wide for my liking.
Again, I should have read the description prior to ordering, thus my own fault & I'm not going to be a stick in the mud & will either keep it for an acoustic guitar or put it on eBay.
I should add that AmericanMusical had this shipped immediately. I had been on a long hiatus from ordering guitar stuff from here & will absolutely be back.

Adjustment slide on collar bone
By: The Jaymz
Submitted: 5/4/2020
Product Review
While this seems to be a quality made product it doesn't work for me personally. I have to use it at it's shortest on my bass. With this having adjustment one both sides it causes one of the adjustment slide to rest directly on my collar bone which as you can imagine causes great discomfort. I will be returning this item for something with an adjustment on only one end of the strap.

I wanted something other than nylon, leather, or fake leather, and generally liking D'Addario/Planet Waves products, I thought I'd give this a try. Still has leather or leather-ish ends, which I had hoped to avoid, but oh well. It's *really* comfortable, which after years of playing boat anchor basses, I can *really* appreciate.

The most comfortable strap I´ve used!
By: Gus
Submitted: 7/30/2018
Product Review
There´s no way you won´t like this one. It´s a little bit wider than the usual 2", but you get used to it in 2 songs or less. In my case I missed maybe one more inch on the length. Still think it would work for most of players who do not go all the way to their knees. I´m talking Johnny and Dee Dee Ramone style.

This was a nice change for me from years of heavy leather guitar straps. It seems well made, comfortable and I hope it lasts. I play bass and I'm small in stature, so weight distribution is important. The padding inside is nice to have. I'm happy with this one and it's a fair price! I installed the Hennessey 7200 strap locks on mine. Highly recommend those, too!

Your general opinion of this product.
I've been using a 2" strap w/ no padding...I am so much happier w/ this strap....The padding doesn't cover the entire strap I I don't sling my guitar around...so a bit more padding would have been better
It's very well made....the quality of the materials is excellent
It's comfortable....perfect width and easy to get at the knobs

It Lives Up To It's Name

Your general opinion of this product.
After a recent purchase of a new bass, I decided I needed at least a new strap to go with it. Since the bass is pretty beefy (which I like in a bass,) and I've used various Planet Waves products in the past with satisfaction, I decided to give this a shot. I'm glad I did. As soon as I put it on the bass, it was like it was lightweight. It definitely does what it claims to do. It won't dig into your shoulder after a long session, and it's wide enough to where it won't bunch and twist around like narrower straps can. Because it is wider, it may take some getting use to, if you use narrower straps. Once you do and it breaks in, you may not want to go back to them.
It seems to be well made and quite durable. I haven't heavily gigged with it yet, so I'm not sure how it will hold out in the long run. It seems to be just as well made as other straps I've had that lasted for years, so I'm not too worried.
It's a little stiff when you first put it on, but after wearing it for awhile, it's broken in and quite comfortable. The padding is pretty soft and not scratchy feeling, like most nylon straps can be, sometimes.
Well, since it's comfortable, I imagine it will help your tone quite a bit by helping your playing comfort with your instrument.
I'm able to adjust it to my specifications without issue, so I'd say the action is fine.
Just your basic black strap. It works for me, but if you want hot pink fur or zebra stripes, you'll have to look elsewhere. It only comes in one flavor.
So far, so good. Like I said before, I've been quite happy with Planet Waves products, so I'm pretty confident this will do the job.

Your general opinion of this product.
At first I didn't like this strap because of the width, like 4 inches or so. But with a 10 pound guitar I quickly became accustomed to it. NOw that its broke in I really dig it.
Had it for 6 months, used every day. NO problems.
Feels comfortable once broken in.
It's still black and red.
Great

Good quality.
Just but it, so don't know.
Your general opinion of this product.
This is a great strap for a heavy guitar like a Les Paul or an Epiphone SG that is top heavy. It provides good balance and the padding keeps it from moving around. Nice looking, too.
