I had some issues playing standing up because my back hurts holding a longscale bass, but this no more! The strap is so thick, and provides a lot of comfort. You really don't feel the real weight of the instrument and no back hurts. Also, I could adjust it too raise the bass up more to play it however I want to.
Also, it looks so good with the musical notes on it, I do look like a star! I am joking, but it really looks good. I recommend it and it does not rob a bank for its price, to be honest!
