I was over at Snuffy Smith's last week, and the subject of cradle straps came up. Snuffy said that putting a cradle strap on a banjo was a really bad idea, because you are basically dampening the tone ring, and not allowing your banjo to perform to its true potential. It makes sense to me. I prefer something that hooks to two brackets, as this does not impede to sound in anyway.
