^ Are leather straps just typically longer then? My bassist has a leather strap on his bass, and when I put it on it goes down to my damn knees! Also, DiMarzio straps FTW.

Not really a chest rocker, but I like to keep things at a comfortable height, not far off where the guitar would be if you were stitting down.

Yeah, where it is when I'm sitting with it is usually what I use as a starting position when I adjust my straps.

If you can touch your guitar with your chin without being into yoga you're gay.

Mid height is comfortable, allows some throwing around of the guitar as well! Compromise between looking like a nerd and not being able to play.

It's fucking funny when DEP do live gigs and have their guitar up chest-rockin and just thrash around like nuts haha.



Best part of that vid is that they were inside a supermarket jumping on people's heads haha whilst old ladies were shopping.

Chestrocking =

eh, I thought the guitars were higher up, but still funny anyway.

It feels uncomfortable for me to play riffs at the low end of the neck if the guitar is up too high, and obviously leads get a lot more uncomfortable if the guitar is too low, so I'm still experimenting with finding the best middle ground. It's somewhere around medium-high I guess.

I'll ammend my prior comments to say that, the last time I played Chris's Jem, I had to lower the strap before I could play it comfortably.
