They take a bit of time to get right as you need to take in account of the postition you play in when standing up and the guitars weight. First thing I noticed when I used one is how much I push down on the neck. Never even noticed I did it until I tried a stretchy strap. :shock:
Got mine on ebay for 6 quid. 8)

Looks like the Levy is exactly the same as the original german ones as Levy have licensed it. Dirt cheap and super comfy

Think DiMarzio (Or was it Ernie Ball) also sell a stretchy one but its thinner. I wouldn't say Levy's stretch was cheap either.. usually well over £20 for a No.1 new, hence me searching ebay for a few days for a 2nd hand one.

Unsure whether I'll be able to afford a Jag or not now so I may have to put those plans on the backburner, but I still need a new guitar.

I'll keep looking around. The P38 could still be a nice choice but I want something with a bridge single coil. If I get it cheap enough I could still afford to swap out the bridge HB though.
