While the strap is well-made and carries the weight of the horn (for a little while), it comes with no pictures or instructions on how to set it up. Included are a mulititude of straps with no readily discernible purpose, but you’re entirely on your own when it comes to setting it up. Also, once I adjust the strap for holding the horn in playing position, the straps gradually creep away from that setting, which means during a gig or concert I have to reset the straps three or four times. It actually becomes easier (when sitting) to simply forego the strap and just hold the horn. Additionally, the item’s price is, in my opinion, way out of line for what you get and how it performs. I am not impressed, will never buy another and do not recommend this item for the reasons noted above.

Nice product, good for a backup if you don’t have a sousaphone (like the predicament i was in). A little difficult to navigate HOW to put it on and get the balancing right, but it all around served me well. Gave me good comfort and mobility while i was playing. Took the weight right off a 4/4 tuba! Thanks 😀

I am using this strap with a Conn 24J (a 6/4 tuba) and it does quite well. The bottom cradle was not large enough to go around the bow of my horn, but I was able to use the bottom strap hook just fine. This is a 50 lb horn and I am able to play standing up for a jazz group I am in.
