I bought this strap for using with my MusicMan Bass. Before this I was using a regular guitar strap, which used to hurt my shoulder after playing over an hour. But that problem has now gone away with this strap, which has a decent amount of cushioning. I was skeptical of its length, but it is more than enough.Note: I recommend using this strap along with a pair of good strap-locks, as it tends to slip out of the knobs after a while.
