Let's see your guitar strap

this is my current strap. I have a few. I like the big wide leather type mostly. They're comfy.

 

Sorry , don't have one.
Single Trooper Aerial Platform (STAP)
STAPs, which appear in The Phantom Menace, are designed to appear reminiscent of the speeder bikes seen in Return of the Jedi.[26] The STAP's design also relates back to Lucas' 1973 idea of ridable "jet-sticks"; a draft of The Phantom Menace refers to the vehicles as STAPS, or Single Troop Armed Pogo Sticks.[26] They were brown with one vertical stem and a horizontal foot stand and a higher horizontal handlebar. It had two twin engines directly underneath the handlebars with one on either side of the vertical stem. The STAP's allowed single droids to travel ahead and scout out the battlefield.

 

Made this strap last year, taking a bit of time to break in but I love the extra wide 3 1/2 strap

 

I have no stap, I'm married. It would never be allowed.

 

Nothing fancy, I bought this tooled wide leather one with my first 2 guitars way back in 1976 and added strap locks right away, one of those first guitars is sitting next to it, a 1939 Gibson L50, the one that got the strap & locks is a black with gold hardware 1976 Explorer non limited edition.

The strap is pretty worn now, you can't hardly see the tooling anymore. I have a few of the free Gibson and Fender ones laying around too but this is still my favorite one.

 

My Strat has one of these that came with the guitar:


My Tele has one of these that I bought after I got the guitar:


Pretty original, eh?

 

...and just a generic plain black 3" strap for my acoustic. No picture necessary.

 

I feel like a real nerd posting this, but it's a J Garcia design lol. In my defense, I got it from the $5 used bin at Music Go Round.

 

Couch Guitar Strap, Late 60's GTO/Firebird trunk liner:

 

I've had a line of straps for about 3 years now. Above is my original model.

Here are the new colors I just launched. They'll be available February 1st, and I'll be running a TDPRI special at that point as well.

 

Love my Dog Tired Guitar Strap




Edit: Roger, you just beat me to it

 

The year, 1979. My girlfriend in high school bought it for me for my birthday. 37 years later, the gift that keeps on giving!

 

I am weird about straps....every guitar gets it's own and it must match the guitar...some get cheap, some get expensive....I'll post a few later....

Perri's, jeri hart, Italia, Dunlop, Couch....

 

We're more interested in what happened to the girl friend than in the strap, I think?

A Jerry Garcia strap? Darn! All I have is a Jerry Garcia necktie.

 

Might have to squint to see 'em:



Top L-R: homemade classical strap; "Rose" strap from Jodi Head; Franklin strap; homemade classical strap. Bottom row: custom strap from my friend's boot and saddle shop; El Dorado "classic"; nylon strap; Jerry Garcia replica from Jeri Hart; Italia strap.

 

Soft, stylish, and a perfect match for my blackguard.
