No sarcasm. It does help.
Brings the neck closer to your body or something like that
But makes it slightly harder to strum.
Takes some getting used to

I find it a lot easier when I hold the bass at more of an angle. It never clicked for me to hold it parallel to the ground.

Exactly. no sarcasm [this time
], I play a lot of power chords on a five string, I use really long straps, basically you can swing your bass up almost vertical and it keeps the neck from sticking out when you do it.Re: Let's see your BASS!

BRO BUT HOW ARE YOU GONNA FUCK UP YOUR WRISTS?????
I've never had a problem playing chords on the grabber. Though, actually, I found it hard to play guitar for the first 3-4 years of me trying due to the stupid tiny strings.

I keep guitars around in hopes that one day I'll get past the "man, fuck these tiny strings" stage...but I don't think that'll happen. I've started leaving a couple strings off so that there's space on the fretboard, fuck it. It's like playing a toy, I'm throttling it the entire time. Like the amount of effort it takes for me to not accidentally mute adjacent strings is absurd.
Bass is the best because I can use the pads of my fingers and get lazy with it. Guitar requires nerdy precision or elf hands, get outta here with that mess. Maybe with a 6-string bass, though...
