Nobels No1 Stretch Strap XL BK

It's probably not my thing. I played it during live rehearsals to try it. I don't jump around on stage anymore.
Jumping and tossing the guitar around your waist is the only part of playing guitar I can imagine this strap would be helpful.
It is comfortable to wear but the stretchy feeling is not good for me. I can't be as precise in playing guitar as with a normal strap. I feel the guitar is constantly moving a little bit up down.

It's not THAT stretchy. If you leave it alone it won't move. You need to put some force for it to start stretching. Quite a bit of force.

BAD THINGS:

It looks poor quality.

Poor quality end things... When I tried it first I already made a huge dent in the end of the strap where the strap pin comes. I thought about returning the strap because I'm not happy with it BUT I realized I made so much damage to it already by testing that it already looks used a lot!

Limited in length settings. You can only set it where the holes are. The length can't be precisely set.

OK this one is really bad.
Let's say you strap it on the hole number 2.. this leaves you a long part of the strap just hanging from your guitar pin down. The end of the strap just hangs there like 20 cm of weird rubber thing sticking from the back of your guitar. You can't fix this end anywhere. The only thing you can do is cut away the end holes. But what if you will need them in the future?

No packaging. It just comes in a plastic bag like a 7€ strap.

Only one graphic design currently on Thomann - black with a white stripe.

Really expensive for what you get.


Good things

The main part of the strap - the stretchy part is quite nice material and of a comfortable width.

It comes in different sizes and the lengths are clearly labeled. This is very important and I wouldn't buy it if it didn't.
But unfortunately you can't set the length to your preference - you can only choose the length by one of the holes already made.


To the maker:
Make a nice looking packaging.
Make the strap able to set the length precisely.
Make better end things with better and thicker material.
Do all this while keeping the same price and you will have a great product to sell.
