Looking For Guitar Straps

Post by even13flow »

A very few of you guys here already know that next Friday I'll have a new guitar, I'm looking at all over the internet to try to find a strap to match it.

I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions, I'm thinking something with flames on it but I'm not sure if anyone else can think of anything better. Thank you for your help.

Wow I like the way that wood looks...is it the stain or is it actually that color? And what kind of wood is it?

Quilted Bubinga, that's the way that wood normally looks I guess.

Nice, very nice. A black leather strap with some red accents rather they be flames or pick up a similar pattern like on the fretboard would be cool. That's what I think I'd do?
That fretboard pattern reminds me of the Godsmack thingy.

Wow that's one beautiful guitar ;) As a strap I would use either a completely black leather strap or a brown leather with/without a little bit lighter flames.

Na man, this is a Ken Lawrence explorer. Ken has built 2 guitars for James, and I wanted mine to be an exact copy of James' 2nd guitar...this is even cut from the same sheet of wood as his.
