The "Feel-Good" Guitar Strap.
The YStrap is not just another guitar strap, it is truly a professional,
ergonomic working tool, that actually improves artistic performance.

It doesn't improve artistic performance at all ---what a stupid and bogus
claim.

It looks ridiculous and a regular strap as everyone on earth uses without
any problem does not impede taking the guitar off quickly.

Shoulder straps for guitar as they have evolved over the years do the job
just fine and

If what you make was any good it would have been around and in use, a long
time ago/already.

How about a full double shoulder harness like for an accordion!!

PS the SPAM isn't appreciated either.

Dear Spammer,

Get back to us when you've got a "Feel-Good" jock strap, eh?

I played in a band many years ago where our lead guitarist used honest to
God surgical hose for a guitar strap. I laughed til I cried many a night
looking over the other side of the stage and seeing Gerald stretching his
strap into funky positions. It was really a hoot.
regards,
Jim

besides the fact that i've made better looking straps with floral
ribbon and duct tape, how the hell does the second little strap do any
good at all?! all the weight would be on one shoulder since the guitar
is weighting down only one part of the strap. The other little extra
strap would recieve virtually NO part of the weight since the angle it
makes with the main part of the strap is probably no less than 90
degrees....if this idiot designer knew anything about phsyics and/or
had any common sense that would've been apparent long ago.

You should see the ystrap web site it is even funnier!!

The claim:
"The is an entirely new product that is radically improving the lives and
careers of musicians."

What a crock!! So much for Canadian truth in advertising laws.

There is already a strap that ahs been created for people with bad backs
etc...it looks similar to one used for carrying those big drums in a parade,
but can also be used for guitar. It looks alot more normal than this one.

It is put out be Remo and created by a friend of mine!!

So! You're more interested in how you look than how you play?

Is it any more retarded looking than spandex & mullet haircuts?

If you've got back problems & this lets you keep playing, what difference does
it make what it looks like.

You guys might think it looks funny, but just try this thing rigged through
a Richard Gray Company Power Unit, which filters out all the nasty AC spikes
that can really make straps uncomfortable. I'm surprised you guys are so
skeptical -- you know, the new world order doesn't allow misinformation on
the Internet.

I like this line from the site:

"For the first time in the history of guitar straps, there is a design to
meet the specific needs of guitar and bass players."

Wow, a guitar strap -- and it's designed for guitar players! I say shell
out your money right now; this is unquestionable genius :)

Did you hear about the new lesbian bluegrass band?

They call themselves "The Strap-On Jubilee."
