A Bass Strap With Character — Woven, Wide, Comfortable
Bass is heavier than a guitar, and it hangs on your shoulder for the whole song. That makes the strap one of the few accessories that genuinely affects how long and how comfortably you can play. A thin nylon strap concentrates the weight into a narrow line; a wider woven band spreads it, and the soft jacquard sits against your neck without the plasticky edge of cheap webbing.
Width and comfort
At 5 cm (2 inches) wide, the band distributes the bass's weight across more of your shoulder than a standard 3.8 cm strap. That reduces the "hot spot" pressure that makes long sets uncomfortable. The woven surface has a little grip, so the bass doesn't slide forward as you move, and the material breaks in and softens with use rather than staying stiff.
Length: high and tight, or low and loose
The two sliders adjust the strap from 82 cm to 137 cm. Wear it short to keep the bass high for fast fingerstyle and slap, or drop it low for a relaxed rock stance — the range covers both extremes and everything between, for players from teens to tall adults.
Fits your bass — and everything else
The genuine leather keyhole ends fit standard strap buttons on Precision, Jazz and most modern basses. Because it's a standard-fit strap, the same band moves onto a guitar or ukulele whenever you switch — one reason many players buy a mixed pack so each instrument wears its own pattern.
Four woven patterns

Care
Spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; don't machine wash. Wipe the leather ends dry after a sweaty gig. Treated this way, a woven strap lasts for years and only looks better as the leather ages.

Bass strap FAQ
Is this strap wide enough for a bass?
It is 5 cm (2 inches) wide, which spreads a bass's weight across the shoulder far better than a thin strap and is comfortable for typical practice and gig lengths. For very heavy basses played for several hours straight, some players add a padded shoulder piece, but most find this width and the soft woven band comfortable as-is.
How long does it adjust — can I play low-slung?
Yes. It adjusts from 82 cm to 137 cm (about 32–54 inches), so you can wear the bass high and tight for fast playing or drop it low for a relaxed stage stance. Two sliders hold the length securely.
Will the leather ends fit standard bass strap buttons?
Yes. Both ends are genuine PU leather with a keyhole slot sized for standard strap buttons found on Precision, Jazz and most modern basses. If your bass has strap locks, the leather is thin enough to sit under most aftermarket lock systems.
Does it work on guitar and ukulele too?
It does — same 5 cm width and leather ends. Many players keep one Fretweave strap moving between a bass, a guitar and a ukulele, or buy a mixed 2-pack so each instrument has its own pattern.
