Does anyone have one of these? Its hard to tell from the pictures how it holds the tuba. Pictures from the side would be great if you have them (tried looking, couldnt find any)

Thanks

I have one. There is an attachment hook that clips onto a harness loop on the bottom bow. There are two smaller clips at the top of the harness... one on each side to clip onto whatever is available... and loop or a brace. It's sort of a three-point sling... one at the bottom and two at the top. I always used the clip at the bottom and sometimes use only one clip at the top... depending on which horn I'm playing.

Warning: attach your horn to that bottom clip ever so carefully. Not, it'll scratch the you know what out of your horn.

The pad that is behind this clip(when in playing position) is quite handy. I don't think the Neotech has this pad, allowing the tuba to bounce on your pelvis.

I know this has been partially discussed in another thread, but how do you find this harness for comfort? Compared to other harnesses you may have tried.

Thanks for your input so far
