I don't usually comment on videos like these, but I've really got to hand it to you on this one. That strap is really something to be proud of. It looks great against that Cherry finish SG. I almost bought an SG yesterday, but I wound up passing on it. Bought an ESP-LTD 256FM with the Cobalt Blue natural finish instead. I almost bought an Epiphone SG Modern, then I almost bought a Les Paul Modern, then I flip-flopped on financing an actual Gibson SG and every time I thought about doing it, I kept going back to that ESP-LTD and I couldn't get it out of my head so I bought it.

La classe ! Et dire que je lorgnais sur les sangles ed guitare quand j'avais 16 ans. D'ailleurs, tu as la guitare que je trouvais magnifique. Maintenant que je pourrais me faire une une sangle, je ne joue plus ... c'est marrant la vie ! Joli playback de guitare, j'y ai cru :) La sangle est top aussi. Bravo !

Beautiful design! Perfectly suites the guitar. An other great project by the (to be) master of leather craft. How well does the belt work with the top heaviness of the SG? Did you play and record the music yourself?

@RedSmith

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! ;) It works great. Way better than my old one to be honest. I wish I could still play that well...Maybe with a little bit of practice, but I lack time these days :)

Superb! 🤟😄🤘 And thats a heck of a lot of stitching! Did you do it all in one pass or sections?

@RedSmith

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks😊 Yes indeed. I made four sections. Two by side. One for the interior and one for the exterior line. With only one thread, it wouldn't have been manageable.

Cool project that came out awesome. I was pondering a similar sort of pattern with suede but I dig the tooled leather better I think. Maybe a mixture of both? Hmm.... Great video for sure.

Thanks a lot. That was originally my first idea, but as I already had made a knife sheath like that, I wanted to try something new with the tooled part.

@@RedSmith no I know how much material, but as far as hours to justify the cost. Can you sell a custom guitar strap for 500, 1000, just not sure what people will pay for a custom strap is my question....with the hours put into it. Trying to not charge too much, but also not give my time away

@RedSmith

2 жыл бұрын

Ok I see. Yes it's a difficult question for makers and craftsmen. I think you can't really go above 250 for a guitar strap. But less than 80, you would lose money and time. But if it's for a friend, you can just make him one for free. Hope it helps.

What's the point if there's no liner under the strap?? All that unfinished area is just goin to scratch up my shoulder and all that red dye comin off when u sweat.. Cool for YT but impractical for an actual gig.

@RedSmith

2 жыл бұрын

If a strap with no liner scratch up your shoulder, you put a shirt on, toughen up or or buy a fabric strap with a velvet liner to play, but not a leather one. Many straps don't have a liner because it's not really necessary. I just adds to the price or confort people in need on softness. Plus, once I have dyed and dried my leather pieces and applied the correct finishes, the colour doesn't bleed. I've used this strap for a few months now and I never had any issue with it. Asking questions about a video you've watch is always a good thing, being critical with an obvious lack of knowledge, is not required. Have a good day and thanks for watching.
