Decent 2″ guitar strap.

Here’s my formula for getting a four star review.

Start at three stars.

-1 star for the color being off, not as pictured.

The light color in the tweed is BRIGHT yellow.

The leather ends are almost orange.

I put this on my Candy Apple Fender Stratocaster and feel like I should be playing lead for Ronald & The McDonaldland Band.

+1 star for being long enough. I’m 6’2″, 250lbs, most econo-straps end up being way too short for me. No problem here.

+1 star value for the money. The Fender tweed straps are tough and last forever (this isn’t my first) and usually look very classy. A good choice for the budget minded guitarist.

This is a great looking strap for an acoustic or electric.

Things to note:

- The patern is actually alternating diagonal stipes of a rust brown and yellow tweed colors

- The strap ends look like cheap leather, unfortunately, but have not affected the finish of my guitar which is important

- Since this is a fabric strap, it will bind on your clothing when trying to adjust shoulder placement or guitar angle on the fly

This strap has a late 1950s look and makes a good match for my blonde Telecaster and tweed Blues Junior Amp. There isn’t anything fancy to it, but the price is good and the wide strap is comfortable enough.

This strap has replaced an old lighning bolt patterned guitar strap and really looks cool. It shows off my Jazzmaster sunburst finish and has a classy retro-cool look.
