It matches so that the bass is at about the same location as it would have been if sitting down playing it without a strap.

Also my bass in general balanced better on my fat belly, now resting more on the middle of it, rather than sitting halfway on top of it. So for now I'll keep the strap at 129cm. And it keeps getting longer it seems, now it is 138cm (or 136 cm strap hole to strap hole). Do mind though that I, as said, is 6'4" (192cm) tall. (Edit!!!: Well, back to 126.5cm hole to hole, as with 138cm I had issues with being able to fret the lower strings at the upper end of the fretboard, above 12th fret or so. This also seems to be pretty much spot on where my bass would naturally be if I sat with it.) Edited March 7 by Baloney Balderdash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
