Bassoon harness design

The Kolbl bassoon harness is made from durable nylon straps and fitted with a strong metal hook. This ensures that it will last a long time and will keep your bassoon secure whilst you are playing. It is adjustable and there are three sizes on offer (see above): small, medium and large. If you are unsure of which size to pick, purchase a medium size and if this does not fit we will happily swap it for another size for you.

Spreads weight & reduces tension

This bassoon harness will spread the weight of your bassoon evenly over your neck and shoulders. This means that there is much less weight and tension on your neck than there would be if a neck strap was used. Spreading the weight more evenly helps to avoid strain, injury and the dreaded bassoonists neck (when a neck strap is used the weight of the bassoon can pull your neck forward and down).

Comfortable for Women & Men

This bassoon strap is suitable for both females and males and comes in three sizes. The straps lie over sensible areas of the body in order to ensure that comfort is not impeded when worn.

Flexible & convenient

You can use this bassoon harness when you are sitting down or standing up, which affords you great flexibility when playing. Its design enables your bassoon to be closer to the side of your body, which can help create a better and more comfortable hand position. The bassoon harness strap folds into a small bundle which can easily be stored in your bassoon case and transported for everyday use.

Great accessory for new players

I bought this for my teenage son (5'9", thin build) after a school semester struggling with his new bassoon. Compared to a seat strap, this frees him up to play more comfortably, standing up. Great accessory, very good price, and quick service & shipping to Canada.

The harness is secure, yet

The harness is secure, yet lightweight and not too bulky. I will be purchasing the balance for better support for playing while standing.

Finally got myself a harness and it's perfect

I'm a smallish woman and ordered the medium, which fits perfectly. It's a dream to use, very comfortable and discreet with a black outfit.

Harness

Very good harness but takes a bit of thought initially to use it correctly. There are a couple of Youtube videos that show you how it works.

The bassoon harness

This is an excellent product. Very comfortable to wear once you have got into it. Super easy to adjust. Keeps the weight of the instrument off the back of your neck- much better for your spine- and gives freedom of movement. If you need to play standing up or even walking, this harness will give you balanced, firm support

Bassoon Harness

After using a neck strap since learning to play the instrument to many years ago to mention - it was with trepidation that I ordered this. 3 weeks on I am still getting used to it as it does slightly move the instrument to a different position. Halfway through an orchestral rehearsal I switched back to the neck strap and couldn't believe how uncomfortable it was and promptly put the harness back on - the weight distribution is totally different with obviously no pressure on the neck and I am confident I will get used to it. From a female perspective its comfortable across the chest however you do feel like your are putting on a parachute harness and you just have to forget about how it looks - just think about comfort :-))

Kölbl Bassoon Harness

I normally use a seat strap but certain problems resulted in a need to change, perhaps briefly, to a harness. I borrowed a Kölbl many years ago and wanted to add one to my kit. This model is very well made and the suspension height adjustment is well designed and simple to operate and adjust under playing conditions. I bought the Large size, which, actually, was not as large as I thought it might be, but it fits me (44" inch chest) even with clothing thicker than a shirt. There does not seem to be an extra Large size. The weight of the instrument is undetectable round the shoulders and this product is much to be favoured over a neck halter.

The small size is an excellent fit for my 10 year old. He finds it very comfortable both in standing and sitting.
