    I do some leather working on the side and finally got around to making up a few nice guitar straps. I tried to design them to be easily adjustable, comfortable, and durable. I now have any many strap options for a gig as guitars.

    Let me know what you think!

    Very cool.

    There's nothing like leather when it comes to straps, imo, but the traditional "slot" length adjustment is a bit unconvenient.


    Besides the great looks i really love the "belt" like adjustment.

    Great work.

    I've only bought five straps in 40 years, or one every 8 years if you like.

    My main one I've had for 35 years, that's the benefit of leather, treat it well and it will last a lifetime.

    I'm looking at yours and I'm liking the design.

    Nice.

    Agreed on the slot adjustment method. It takes forever to change lengths and all the weight is on the first slot stretching it out. The only drawback of the buckle is that it adds some bulk and weight - but it's minimal and not really noticeable with the buckle down on the back.

    Better to get some use out of the byproducts of the meat industry than let them go to waste.

    With that said, do you make mink straps? I heard they're best for tone

    I already source the finest tone-leathers from the Brazilian rain forrest's endangered cattle.
