Nice comfy strap
Dan Dan the sound man 24.01.2018
I have quite a heavy bass guitar and so needed to get a strap that I could ware all day and not have the strap digging in to shoulder.

This one seemed to do the job and wasn't to much.
The strap is brown leather which seems alright, not the nicest leather, but you get what you pay for. Around the buttonholes it looks like they might go over time, but should be OK.
The padding is good and make the strap a bit wider which makes it more comfy. It's not the thickest padding but good for what it is.
I've used this strap for all day sessions and I've not had the strap digging in to my shoulder which is a nice improvement from my last strap.

The main thing with this strap that I have found is it that it's quite long for a strap. I'm not particularly short at 5'11 and I've got to have it on it's shortest setting, which is fine, but if I wan't it shorter I can't.

Overall impression: great strap for the money particularly if you have a heavier instrument like I do. The quality is good for the price and so long as you look after it should last a good amount of time.

I loved it at first, it's very comfortable wearing for a long time. However it's surprisingly heavy, it's the first strap I held whose weight I could "feel in hand". In combination with a heavy guitar it's not ideal. It seems to be real leather and not "scrap" leather which is a big plus

The padded side lock hole got worn out over time and I don't trust it to hold my guitar anymore, I remember at least two accidents where I barely saved my guitar from hitting the floor. I think from now on I will only ever buy elastic straps for heavy guitars and for this strap I'll get strap locks, if I want to use it again

So overall it looks better than it functions, so I can only recommend it if you care more about looks than your own comfort (which is an entirely valid point of view) and if I were you I'd avoid using it with heavy guitars

Nice but on a little bit thin leather
Marcus6718 14.12.2021
The strap is quite nice, the leather is a bit thin. Might be a problem in the long run. I’m thinking it would work great with strap locks which would not only fit well due to the thin leather but also save it from wear and tear. The padding is soft and no worse than other straps I’ve tried. Some reviewers said the padding looks dirty and while I see what they’re getting at it’s not a problem. It’s comfortable and adjustable.

11 Out Of 15 Stars_73%
Nyli 23.12.2015
I bought this strap to use when i am busking. I often stand playing for three hours at a time with my Acoustic Guitar. This strap is pretty comfortable, and feels okay.

Quality wise it is okay, it's not the greatest, but i guess it's not the most expensive.

I have given it 11 out of 15 stars which equate to 73% which i think is fair. I have taken off 4 marks as there probably are more comfortable straps out there,i think it would be nice to be longer, and the most important it is described as leather, but i think it is PU leather, at best.

Comfy but is lacking a bit in the quality department
SlipperyNutz 27.03.2021
I have a Harley Benton SC-550 that I use this strap on. It is quite a heavy guitar and this strap really helps minimise the amount of pressure on the shoulders. You have the ability to change its length which is a pro. One downside is the quality isn't great. Some of the stitching is coming undone, this started happening shortly after it arrived. There also seems to be adhesive sticking the fabric to the leather, my adhesive seems to have gone and now it makes sticky noises whenever I take it off or put it on.

comfortable and classy
PalmMute 18.07.2018
Overall a very nice strap, the padding makes it comfortable even for long sessions. Looks good too. My only complaint is that the thinner end of the strap hangs loose from my guitar because I use the middle slot instead of the bottom one. Not really a big deal at all, but it does look a bit off. Would recommend for sure!
