Rico Saxophone Strap, Soprano/Alto, Black Nylon

Truly one of the best, most reliable neckstraps out there. I've had them for years and they still look new and function perfectly. Great hook design for hooking/unhooking quickly at gigs (especially pit work with multiple instrument changes).

These are excellent straps. Sturdy and comfortable

I hate bulky padded straps, and I wanted a slim design with a covered metal hook. Enter this strap - it totally fits the bill. It's also great that the price is reasonable and not ridiculously inflated.

I would say this is a good beginner neck strap. It's not the most comfortable. There is no padding on the back of your neck. The length is just right for my curved soprano saxophone. I do have to say I do not like how the adjustment loosens on its own as you play. Kind of annoying. If your on a budget, I can recommend this. If you have a bit more cash, get something else.

I bought this for my 11yo who just started playing saxophone this year, probably just a couple of weeks before I purchased this. The strap it came with wasn’t really made for a child, or if it was, maybe it’s meant for a bigger, possibly teenage child.Anyway, within the first use, this thing paid for itself. Getting “hooked up” was much easier for her. Getting the strap on and off and properly adjusted was a breeze for her to do on her own. Her only complaint was the lack of padding, but the original had no pad and I’m not going to spoil her too soon.Once she’s marching and has a legitimate reason for a padded strap, I’ll get her the other version of this that has a pad if she really wants it. I played guitar for over 20 years without a padded strap… and a heavy Les Paul to boot. She’ll survive a few years with the sax and bare strap!

As advertised, nice strap!!

The neck strap I received with my Yamaha YDS-150 Digital Sax was too wide and too stiff so it was cumbersome for me to use. This strap is flexible, light weight and super easy to adjust. I purchased the strap with the locking hook to avoid any accidental drops. I’ve played sax for over 30 years, I wouldn’t be afraid to use this strap on my acoustic alto or tenor. However due to the additional weight of my regular saxophones I prefer a padded neck strap.
