Your cart is empty.Neotech's Brass Sling offers extra support for many tubas, baritones, euphoniums and other brass instruments which relieves the all-too-common shoulder and arm fatigue. The Brass Sling's patented design supports the weight of the instrument by combining neoprene with an internal control-stretch system to effectively distribute the weight over a larger area. This system reduces the felt-weight of the instrument by up to 50% making practicing or performing for extended periods of time much more comfortable. It also pulls pressure away from the lips as there's no longer the need to use the lips as a balancing point. The nonskid surface on the back of the strap means it stays firmly in place and won't slip while performing. Fully adjustable in length 40" - 57" (101,6cm - 144,8cm). As the instrument is now comfortable to carry, there's no need to set it on the ground in between sets so it doesn't matter what conditions you are playing in—be it a beautiful concert hall or roaming the streets at a music festival. When an "extra hand" is needed, the Brass Sling is just the thing!

Did not work for me. I was looking for something that would support my horn and prevent my arm/shoulder tiring.

Works good enough if you're using this with a lighter instrument, but the strap slipped through the buckle while I was carrying my tuba. Nose dived, damaging the bell. It came off as soon as the shock had worn off and the concert was over as I did not trust it any longer.Do look at Protec's strap. I have found it to be both more comfortable to use and far better made and trustworthy.

One of my favorite buys of the year. The strap I had was helpful, but had metal buckles that were scratching my gorgeous new double bell euphonium. Now I can play in comfort with the broad, almost padded strap around the back of my neck that doesn't slip out of place.The one thing I would like to do is make a couple sleeves to cover the plastic buckles for further protection, but it's a vast improvement. Can't wait to try it on my tuba!

Good product. I don’t find it to be comfortable but it is also the only strap I have used so I may just need to get used to it.

Good stuff. Spoilers, buy it.The design of the strap itself is good. It's very soft and comfortable. If you've ever tried to come up with a make-shift solution, then you know how awful a shoulder strap can feel. This isn't like that.The attachment method is pretty much universal. It will easily fit any instrument that is even vaguely upright. You don't need strap loops. You can just any available bracing or even tubing unless it's huge. I even tried it on a King Altonium for kicks and giggles. Not sure why you would bother, but you can.That's kind of brings to something important, which is the capable purpose. You might be able to adjust the strap for one-hand usage, but it's rather finicky to do so. You need to get it just right. It's most useful for top-action piston style, which is good because that's the style most likely to offend an ergo injury. Fits well on ovalform and front-action horns, but it's hard to adjust the strap in a way that provides much support on those designs. I guess that's ok if you just want to avoid any possibility of dropping your horn. Nothing wrong with that.And yes, if you have the strap tight enough that it's helping you lift the horn, it's also going to be too tight to remove quickly. Not a great solution for doublers on stand up gigs. Good enough to consider for general purpose if you're not switching around much (or ever).

Does the job, definitely helps to hold my euphonium with the right posture and almost no fatigue for a much longer time (sitting or standing up). Comfortable on the shoulder (nice padding/wide enough). The strap feels strong and safe.I'm 6"2. It took me a lot of try before to find the right setup for me. I guess it depends of the size of the instrument and your own size - there are many ways to put it.Cons: good quality of the product, except the part of the strap (loops) in contact with the brass. They should be padded for a smoother impact on the instrument. Not that I have marks, but I think I could have some on the long term and I would advise to remove them each time you put your instrument back in the case. Also it does not look great overall.

I use this for my Tuba. This thing works great. I thought it was going to be smaller but to my surprise it extends to cover any large brass instrument big and small. The buckles are strong as well. I took a bow with my tuba on and the straps held on tightly without dropping the horn. I would buy it again.

Quality made strap. The padding is covered with a rubberized coating which is fairly "grippy", this can be annoying when putting on or off but keeps the strap from sliding around. Clips are very convenient. May take some experimentation to find good attachment points as there are no suggestions or diagrams included.

Excellent - used it for the Whit Marches this year and found it very comfortable and easy to use, making the instrument easy to carry and play.
