Good things come to those that wait.............and wait

I've been looking for a leather Epiphone guitar strap for more than a year. It looks like a really nice strap and I like the fact it has an Epiphone logo on it. I had two in my sights on Ebay about a year ago and let them go not realizing how infrequently you see them in the States. So I held out and last night I saw a package on Ebay with a strap and some other candy listed. I bought it right away and I'm quite pleased with my score. I can't wait to get it and throw the strap locks on it.

Best part is....................$27 shipped

I need one!! Do they have more or was it a one off deal? Send me a link if they do :)

I sent a message to the seller to hopefully find out where they got it. I know several others are looking for the same strap. I sent a message to Gibson looking for them domestically and never got a response. If I hear anything back from either I'll letcha know!

I'd be interested in one, too.

 

I see that Gibson has pictures of them on their web site:

 

 

but I can't find them anywhere

Ebay user name klskersey sold it to me. He said he has more so if you want one I'd contact him on Ebay.

pretty good buy all in all.

There's a store around Buffalo (two suburban locations) that has quite the array of Epiphone stuff - various straps, as well as strings. The only difference between Epiphone and Gibson strings, they say, are that Gibson strings are vaccum-sealed in the package.
