Guitar Strap?

Hi, My husband has an accoustic electric guitar. I would like to buy him a nice strap for it. I was looking at different straps but am confused. Does an accoustic guitar use a different strap than an electric? If so how are they different? I was looking at Levy straps on Amazon.

Thank you so much

Yeah, no difference.

 

Except for the aesthetic look of the thing. Acoustic straps are more "Earthy" - suede, leather - and a bit wider - 3 inches. Levy straps are fine and the Franklin straps are the ones I buy. Nice selection from them - great Earthy look to match the wood of the acoustic guitar. The suede ones are really nice...and not expensive at all. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_MI?url=search-alias%3Dmi&field-keywords=franklin+guitar+straps

Buy him a nice suede Levy. They're a bit expensive but it will probably be the last strap he'll ever need. They have a HUGE selection. I have them on all of my guitars. Check them out at http://www.sweetwater.com Great prices and free shipping on EVERYTHING ! HECK, I bought a $20.00 Levy strap and they called my house three days after it was delivered to see if I was happy with it. BEAT THAT for customer service !
