Not sure of the maker (I'd like to know, too!). Chuck Rainey has used one over the years also.

I thought at first that it looked like something I saw from Levy's but on second thought, it looks like one of the original Reunion Blue's leather straps.

Don't know if this is specifically what Mr. Dunn uses...but it, a Rollneck strap, looks like it could be similar...

You're welcome and no problem, Poke! It was actually quite the coincidence...I was looking around eBay either last night or the night before to see if there was any Guy Pratt (as if one cannot tell, he and Tony Levin are my two biggest bass heroes...though there are plenty of others right behind'em ) paraphenelia, and happened upon that strap. And then today, I saw this post, looked carefully at the pics, and thought "I'll be darned if that is not the same strap as that Pratt/Gilmour/Manzanera/etc. one I saw on the Bay!!".

Anyway, if you end up getting one of those straps, be it from that eBay 'auction' or somewhere else, let us know how it is! I was thinking I might get one myself one day when I don't mind blowing a bit of cash on a 'nicer' strap...
