Support with no weight on the neck, arms or wrists!
The innovative Counter-Balance Seat Strap does just that. It was patented by me in 2001 and is in use by bassoonists all over the world .
With other seat-straps the right thigh acts as a pivot-point with the bassoon resting against it. But, as the majority of the instruments weight is above this point, weight is placed on the left hand, arm and wrist. The Counter-Balance Seat-Strap has an innovative elasticated section which counteracts this weight.
The elasticated section simply fastens around the right leg of the chair and the left side of the strap is weighted to prevent it from slipping. The elasticated section is adjustable so that more or less weight may be alleviated from the left hand.
The Counter-Balance Seat Strap is made from extremely durable components, ensuring absolute security whilst playing.
Correct posture can be easily maintained, thus aiding younger players particularly.
