Neck Diving Thunderbird, how can i get around it?

[chrisdaman]

right so i've realised more and more recently that the thunderbird dives alot, and it takes alot out of you over a 3 hour practice both playing and holding it up, but i love the shape and look of it

so my question to you good people is how can i stop it diving? change the location of the strap thingy? what solutions are there?

guitar in question:

as you can see the strap holder by the bridge is fine, i think it's the neck-side strap holder, could i move it maybe? to below the neck?

Cheers
