RE: Bass Clarinet Neck Strap

Back to the neckstrap ? . Both my wood Selmer and hard rubber Linton have 2 hook-loops located, very well IMHO, about an inch above the thumbrest and at the level of the Eb/Bb pads on the UJ. These [with a 2 hook strap] give balance to the bass as such. I use a floor peg also [belt and suspenders approach!] for comfort, play directly in front with right foot pulled back a bit to lower my right knee so as to not interfere with my right hand access to the low keys. A repair shop prob. could find a second hook for your single-hook strap. A good friend [has a Sel 37] "hooks-up" much the same. Don
