fortyearspickn Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Recently found a company that makes really high quality straps. Guitar, banjo, mandolin and Resonator Guitar. They are buffalo hide. Thick, strong but very soft. Regular width or wider, various natural colors. Beautiful leather - but no fancy designs - just a great functional strap. And, excellent customer service, if you screw up your order and need help getting the right strap after you order the wrong one. USA Made in Oklahoma, by Native Americans.

Paul14 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) I’ve bought these in various different colors, depending on the guitar. Most comfortable straps I’ve ever used. I would add that they cost much less on eBay, even though they’re being sold by the same people. https://www.lakotaleathers.com/products/guitar/ Edited May 14, 2020 by Paul14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 The chocolate and the tobacco have been here for almost 10 years and I like them a lot. Had the local shoemaker narrowing the holes though. They were too wide for playing safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And metal buckles. But, yes, the weave patterns are very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle fester Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Is there a rule of thumb folks go by on how long they use a strap for. Case by case, don't need to change them... Newbie question I know - but do appreciate any input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
