Can I ask where the idea of attaching a strap to the ball on the bottom of the instrument comes from? I live in England and have played many Imperials and have never seen anyone put a strap on that bottom ball. My understanding is that it is for protecting the bottom bow. All Imperials have the normal two carriage rings which everyone uses for marching with a strap.
