So I was reading old Trombonechat threads before rehearsal and I stumbled upon a 2nd type of Yamaha hand strap released a couple of years ago. I had no idea this existed!
Has anyone had luck importing one of these into the US? Anyone out there stateside who’d be open to making a knock off?
I used to religiously use leather specialties hand straps but when I switched over to my Raths they unfortunately don’t work too well due to there being no where to hook the strap onto securely. This new strap would solve that problem by not even having to hook around the leadpipe receiver! It would also help with not torquing your handslide.

Re: Yamaha TBHS2 Leather Hand Strap
I was able to snag one too! The seller apparently is only posting this item one at a time. Weird. I’ll see if it shows up!

Looks like Neotech without plastic clamps.
Will be waiting for reviews/opinions.
