This beautiful handmade striped Mexican guitar strap is an absolute explosion of color! This custom guitar strap is made from a loom woven Mexican serape, imported from Guatemala, sporting the archetypal horizontal stripes so characteristic of Mexican and Central American fiber art. The stripes of the guitar strap move through shades of red, orange, blue, brown, green, purple, and pink, punctuated with narrow stripes of black and white. It is just an incredibly colorful and eye catching guitar strap made of top quality hand woven cotton. The back lining of the guitar strap is dark green Duchess satin, a particularly thick and shimmering satin that catches the dark green stripes on the front of the guitar strap for a coordinated but totally unique look, and the leather tabs are thick black premium suede leather.

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 lambs wool shoulder pads retain, so your strap is soft, cool, and comfortable. No more aching neck or shoulder and no more pressure points.

There are few things that capture the vibrancy of Mexican culture like the classic Mexican serape. There is an exuberance, a pure and simple joy in just being alive and I have attempted to tap into that sense of joyous abandon with this guitar strap.
