• Details
  This is a very limited stock of a tumbled retanned cowhide that is oil tanned from a top US tannery and retanned and dyed by a second tannery, and the result is very unique "Carbon" gray shading with brown undertones, and a very supple and softer temper than many due to the additional tumbling from this process.
  
  This hide is also additionally waxed, so light scuffs and marks can be easily rubbed out. The grey hide also has a light brown undertone, and slight pull-up showing this lighter brown undertone when it's bent. The gray shade even seems to have some green to it...
  
  The 5-6 oz (~5/64") thick cowhide has a well worn feel like vintage leathers due to the additional tumbling, but it is strong and minimal stretch, and will wear well for acoustic instruments, 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.
  
  There are three length options in stock for the 2 1/2" wide version, and one 2" wide, and all adjust by the inch--based on hole to hole:
  STANDARD is total of about 47" to 58"
  SHORTER is about 4" less, for total of about 43 to 54"
  LONGER is about 3" longer than standard, so is about 50 - 61"
  TRAVELER is 2" wide and is the shorter length, about 43"-54"
  
  (and I can always shorten or make more narrow per your request).
  
  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 laser etching--details are in listing "custom artwork for plain leather strap", but please do let me know if you have questions before ordering. This leather etches nicely, demonstrated by Acoustic Needle logos etched on the front of the main strap and end of the adjustment strap.
  
  The main strap is hand cut to 2 1/2" wide and tapers slightly at either end, and I soften the cut edges with a small bevel tool, so there is a gentle transition from the top surface to the edge. I cut the adjustment strap to about 22", with about 18" to the peg hole, so the overall length can be adjusted with eleven 1" wide slots punched in for the adjustment strap to weave through to set your size.
  
  But since I cut these myself, and pending how much of the leather I have left, I usually can 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 just 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.
