I'm curious to know what kind of strap you guys use for your bass? any particular recommendations?

 

also, strap lock for Fender Jazz bass recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

No difference, but you may want a wider width than for your electric. Also a suede back will be anti-slip if your bass is neck heavy. I don't believe that strap lock manufacturers differentiate between guitars and basses.

I love those straps that Vintage Guitar Magazine used to offer on their online store. They were vintage straps at about $34 a pop and well worth it. Alas, they don't offer them anymore and I can't find out what company made them.:cry:

I use a wide leather strap, with some packing foam taped to the inside of it. I have duct tape wrapped all around the strap as well. Really comfy and nice.

I only like the ones made of nylon car seat belt style.

I like to be able to move the instrument around alot while playing and find leather and suede to 'grippy'.:thu:
