  • Details
    This is a darker version of my popular distressed brown leather strap, and is more walnut colored vs. the honey shade of the other listing which I named after Steve McQueen's character Vin Tanner in The Magnificent Seven, this version is more like Yul Brynner's Chris Adams, a little more mature and darker experiences.

    There is only 1 of these left--the 2" wide strap "TRAVELER" option, which is the shorter length (about 43 to 54") to suit smaller instruments or players.

    This is a smooth dark walnut brown leather. It is oil tanned 5-6oz cowhide, and the distressed look is a result of its "pull up" finish, which means it will lighten for a time where it's been stressed, adding additional character to its varied hues, and the color of the latest hide has a little darker tone.... And the tone of the hide may vary due to differences in the tanning process, so some may be a little darker than the imaged strap. And since it's oil tanned, light scuffs can be rubbed out.

    I have included some photos comparing this walnut to the lighter version for both the top and underside. The strap shown is my longer length option.

    And the slot/adjustment strap weave design means the strap is only leather, and there is no metal or plastic hardware that could annoy you while you're playing, or your knock into you instrument while it's being moved or stored.

    My standard sizing for the peg holes is the FRONT peg hole is punched at 5/16", and REAR peg hole is 3/8". Each end has a small slit that ends with a small hole for a "keyhole" effect to prevent tears and to make the strap easy to install & remove. The hole and can accommodate most pegs, but remains securely in place. These sizes are based on Taylor & Martin acoustic guitars, so if you have a specific peg size or strap locks you need to fit, please let me know and I can make a strap to suit the size you need.

    Personalization/custom artwork is an option by either silk screening or laser etching, but please convo me first with your idea and I can quote you the price to add (min $15 for laser etching or silk screen) and create a custom listing for you.

    The surface finish is overall darker than its underside, which is a light brown. I soften the cut edges with a small bevel tool, so there is a gentle transition from the top surface to the edge.

    I've included a white card in one image to help confirm the color, vs. my grey background. The 5 oz (~5/64") thick cowhide has a smooth matte finish, and has a very small top grain pattern on close inspection, and has a well worn feel and look, and will shows its life--and will wear well. But it is very tough, yet supple, and will hold acoustic, electric, and even bass guitars well.

    The main strap is hand cut to 2 1/2" wide and tapers slightly at either end. And STANDARD is about 42" long and the SHORTER is about 38" long for the main strap only.

    I cut the adjustment strap to about 22", with about 18" to the peg hole, so the overall length can be adjusted from about 47" to 58" between the peg holes for STANDARD, and 43" to 54" for SHORTER length with eleven 1" wide slots punched in for the adjustment strap to weave through to set your size.

    But since I cut these myself, I can easily modify the length, width, or spacing to get the fit that works for you. Or you can add more peg holes in this back strap for finer adjustment as you wear it in.

    This is also laser etched a few inches above the front peg hole and on the adjustment strap with my new brand logo, Acoustic Needle.

    I can also provide coordinating leather "laces" if you prefer to tie the strap to the neck of the guitar, rather than using a front peg. There is no extra charge for these when you order the strap, but please note in the order you want it included.

    The traveler strap was just what my boyfriend was looking for. He loves it and I was very pleased with the seller! She was super communicative every step of the way and even made the strap a bit longer to ensure it would fit my boyfriend as he is not small! I also had it engraved with his initials and it is just what I was expecting. 10/10 would recommend!!!
