Oh, yes. A good strap can make all the difference. Those little ones, your talking about, were fine when I was a teenager. Now that I’m older, they hit a nerve and my fretting hand will go numb.
I like Levy’s Leathers straps. Look for one that’s well padded and at least 3" wide.
My son got me one for Christmas one year and it was instant relief. Even if it doesn’t solve all the problems, it’ll make a huge difference.
