      @@davida4662 I mean Pat Smear was really talented, the reason he could have the guitar that low was because Nirvana songs are super easy. In his other band The Germs had difficult songs, so all of Nirvana songs were a piece of cake to him, and he just jumped around alot so that helped with stage presence..

    The funny thing is... I've always used my straps the "wrong" way. The fixed side of my strap goes to the tail of the guitar and the adjustable end goes to the upper bout. I've done that for so long that it feels weird using it the way 'most' people use a strap.
    No one (and no guitars) have died so I guess it's OK.

    If you really wanted to commit to this video, you'd use the PRS for the over the shoulder guitar spin.
    In the spirit of honestly; I've done this move twice, maybe 3. None were successful. The first time i was 12 and unfamiliar with the concept of strap locks; you can probably work out what happened.
    The second time i WAS familiar with strap locks and had them in use. That one was an issue of lack of spacial awareness. I had plenty of room in front of me as well as the sides, behind my however was a different story. I felt the guitar go up and around only to abruptly stop when the headstock slammed into the dresser that was behind me.
    How that guitar didn't break I'll never know. It was a "Kramer" Beretta, but not really. I think it was called a "Starfighter by Kramer." Pretty much an answer to the "Fender" Starcaster that you'd find in Walmart. It was a beginners package from Daddy's Junkie Music in Nashua NH, had to be in 1988 or so. I remember that guitar, it actually was floating around for a number of years. I sold it to a buddy in 93 or 94 and he actually kept it until the late 2000s. Im pretty sure if was pressed particleboard. The "wood' around that lone volume control just crumbled after a number of years. This is the first steps in what ended in me working as a luthier years later. My first "fix" was definitely more of a hack than a repair; i just used wooden matchstick wedged between the pot and the inside of the routing as line a shim. Think "doorstop."
