cliplocks 4 lyfe. softest vinyl for a strap ever, the plastic clips never break, and yes the cable slot is ingenious.

also with them on all your guitars, you only need one strap on a gig in case you happen to forget to throw a strap in one of your guitar cases the one you have for guitar a will worth with guitar b as well. no fandangling with locks and such, just clip the clips. :p

If I weren't such a Couch fanboi, I'd give Original Fuzz a try, specifically this one:
NSFW: show


I'm waiting for Couch to make a strap version of this:

or a white strap with white end pieces.

I'm a big fan of getting a wide leather 2.5 to 3" at local music shops. There is one not too far away that's always been awesome about me grabbing an LP, SG, or tele off the wall to measure and try it out. After that strap locks because I'm a klutz and don't like repair bills. I wish I could do the online thing, save the dough and all, but I'm so picky that I have to measure it out for the guitar I'm buying it for.

Couch is awesome, and they'll do plastic hardware so you don't ding the face of your axe everytime you put it down. Also, sale today!

I just got one from Walker and Williams. Doubt I'll ever buy from anywhere else now. Really inexpensive and super comfy leather

:thumb: Agreed very good quality and cheap, over all I'd say they are better than levy's

Couch, I like them, I own a few, great for guitar but on a really heavy bass they really dig into you shoulder..

That is what the wide straps are for, also if you use them backwards it seems to help with the digging into your shoulder

These straps are cheap (if you're in Oz). Made in Oz. It's the shipping that's expensive. :idk:

any of you Cliplocks guys use the 3" strap? Is it much different from the regular 2" one?

Open to leopard print or snakeskin? :idk: I have a burgundy version of their casanova strap that matches my TVL Jazzmaster and am very happy with it.
