Title: Gruvgear Peter Erskine Bass strap
Post by: tubeperson on April 27, 2012, 12:55:29 PM

Has anyone tried this new product, as advertized in the April 2012 edition of Bass Player?  It looks like it would support the weight of a heavy Triple Omega Series Bass, and I am hoping for some input.  Thanks!

Peter Erskine is his father - I was just listening to an awesome Kazumi Watanabe album with him on drums & Marcus Miller on bass from around 1980!

Very '80s but very nostalgic for me.  
 
And of course Peter Erskine is on some amazing Weather Report stuff!

If I ever have to take the doubleneck out for live performance I just might need one of those duo-straps!
