I like this harness very much. Excellent for jazz bands, concert bands and marching with. It takes the horrible strain off your neck. The only problem is that after 3 or so years of light use the clip snapped right off in the middle of a marching show. If this came with a rubber coated metal hook it would be much better.

I had problems using the Neotech on vintage Conn baritone and bass saxes. Their strap rings are higher on the horn, to balance on the old-type hanging sax stands. The Neotech doesn't have enough...Read complete review
I had problems using the Neotech on vintage Conn baritone and bass saxes. Their strap rings are higher on the horn, to balance on the old-type hanging sax stands. The Neotech doesn't have enough adjustment range to bring the mouthpiece up to mouth level. (I'm 5'11", 170, medium light build, and find the Canadian made Gemini harness to be more fully adjustable.)

Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
I love this harness! I've always used a neckstrap, and have really been feeling the weight of the bari in my back and shoulders. I tried one of these and it felt great! I'm very happy with it. The only thing I'd improve is how the swivel hook is a little awkward to hold at the right angle to hook up to the sax. But that's a minor issue. It's very comfortable.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
This strap does exactly what it advertises. If you play the Bari like I do you will make the investment. It takes the weight off your neck and redistributes it along your whole upper section and shoulders. I don't even feel like I am holding the Bari at all. It is comfortable even for a woman and can be adjusted to your liking.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
This harness works great for me, but our 5'7" very thing Middle School Bari player needs it taken in to work. I absolutely love the harness and it is worth the time to take it in for my younger player.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
I had been playing my bari for three years and started having kinks in my neck regularly. I had become a member of the district band and found this. I bought it and my neck felt untouched even after an eight hour practice. I plan to use this strap for as long as I can.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
I am allergic to the material that sax straps are made out of, and would break out in a rash everytime I played, and it hurt very badly. After trying a lot of things, including no strap, I was recommended one like this. I got it 3 years ago and it is perfect and still in perfect shape! I couldn't be happier. Plus, even though I'm a girl, it doesn't feel uncomfortable in areas. It fits great!!!! Also relieves a lot of stress on my neck and doesn't strain the shoulders. I highly recommend this.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
Ok, I got this in the middle of marching band season freshman year, and it worked well. By the time I got to band camp sophomore year, the clip was bending way open. When we had the first run through of our show it snapped and I was stuck lugging my bari around the field, barely able to play. Although this is a comfortable harness, it is on the weak side because of the plastic clip. The best solution for this is to get a mini-carabeaner (like for rock climbing) and its never been better.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
This is an excellent harness to wear while playing bari. It really feels good. Many bari sax players know that just a regular neck strap puts to much pressure on your neck. This puts pressure on your back, so it doesn't hurt. Alto and Tenor's, stick to regular neck straps, your instruments aren't as heavy as ours. All in all, good harness. Bari's Rule!
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
This harness is great. It's durable and very comfortable, even during 5 hour band camp. Unfortunately, I broke mine. I thought that it would be funny to attach a dog leash to the plastic hook. I was having a great time when it snapped off... but of course the hook took a huge beating and broke under the pressure of over 100 pounds. If you don't do that your harness, should last a good 2 years or so.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
I'm only 15 and I play a bari at my high school. Before my teacher bought this for me, I thought about quitting every day after practice. I do strongly recommend this to anyone and everyone who plays a bari or a bass.
Comments about Neotech Soft Sax Harness Strap:
I found that the clip bent after about 8-9 months of using it for at least 2-3 hours a day and well, that's a lot of use. It's good for marching jazz and concert bands, but I found if U heat up the clip ever so slowly, U can bend it back into shape and its stronger than the original bend.
