Hohner No. 52

Hohner Strap No. 52 — Tall-Size Support for 80–96 Bass Accordions

The Hohner Strap No. 52 is a tall-size accordion carrying strap engineered for 80–96 bass instruments, the most common size range for student and intermediate piano accordions. Built from reinforced fabric with thick padding, this strap keeps the instrument secure against the player's body while distributing weight across the shoulders. The Hohner Strap No. 52 is the right choice for accordionists who need a dependable, padded strap that fits taller players and larger instruments without sacrificing comfort.

What Makes This Strap Stand Out

Unlike generic fabric straps, the No. 52 features a reinforced material construction with a thick padded section designed specifically for taller players and heavier 96-bass accordions. The integrated connecting strap bridges the shoulder harness to the instrument's hardware, creating a stable hold that prevents unwanted swinging during performance. Hohner's strap range is built around five body-shape variants — Kids (50), Standard (51), Tall (52), ergonomic S-shape (53), and Ergoline — so the No. 52 fills the dedicated "tall" slot in the lineup.

Technical Specifications — Sizing, Fit, and Construction

The dimensions of an accordion strap determine how comfortably the instrument sits against the player's body, how high the keyboard reaches, and how the bellows weight transfers during long sessions. The No. 52's tall-size geometry and adjustable range make it suitable for adult players and anyone needing extra length for a proper playing position.

• Compatibility: 80–96 bass accordions — covers the standard size range for student and intermediate piano accordions.
• Adjustable Length: 62–100 cm — wide adjustment range to fit different player heights and torso lengths.
• Shoulder Padding Width: approx. 6 cm — broad padded section spreads the instrument's weight across the shoulders.
• Connecting Strap Width: 17–37 cm — included bridge strap links the harness to the accordion hardware.
• Material: reinforced fabric — durable textile construction with thick padding for long sessions.
• Colour: black — neutral finish suitable for stage and practice settings.

Who Is It For

The Hohner Strap No. 52 is the right choice for adult accordion students, intermediate players, and gigging musicians who own a 96-bass piano accordion and need a strap that fits a taller frame. It suits players who find standard straps too short or who experience shoulder fatigue during extended practice. The thick padding and reinforced fabric make it well matched to anyone carrying a heavier instrument for rehearsals, lessons, or live performance, while the easy attachment system means it can be fitted and removed quickly between sessions.
