This very formal black and white lattice ribbon handmade guitar strap is perfect for those dressy, black tie occasions when only a tuxedo will do. The guitar strap is black, luxurious, thick Duchess satin with blazing white lattice cut ribbon running the full length of the guitar strap. The ribbon has a wide border up each side and is filled with diagonally crisscrossed lattice work, providing a sharp contrast with the black satin behind the ribbon. The back lining of the guitar strap is the same wonderfully thick black Duchess satin and the leather tabs are premium quality black suede leather.

This guitar strap is especially perfect for musicians who play in orchestral settings, at formal evening weddings, night clubs, upscale dinner clubs, or black tie occasions and need to be particularly formally dressed for the venue. Because this is such a formally stylish guitar strap, it will give you the perfect finished look you need for your dressy performances .

My guitar straps are amazingly comfortable. The 3 inch width allows for weight distribution over 50% more area than conventional guitar straps and even solid body bass players have commented on how comfortable my guitar straps are. Further, because there are 3 bottom layers of fabric between your shoulder and the polypropylene foundation, there is a soft cushion to help further distribute the weight of your guitar without holding the body heat that standard lamb's wool shoulder pads retain, so your strap is soft, cool, and comfortable. No more aching neck or shoulder and no more pressure points.

I get a lot of very odd requests from guitarists and this was one of them. A local jazz guitarist was going to be playing at the Tampa Club, a very haute private club in downtown Tampa. He asked me if I could help him with a guitar strap that was as elegant as the venue. So, this is what I came up with, he loved it, and another guitar strap style was born. Hope you like it.
