Ridiculous, isn't it?

(BTW, that strap is pretty awesome.)

I don't work for a modeling agency, all these girls are doing IT-related work. There are actually a lot of gorgeous women in their 20s working in IT in this country.
But, is the strap cool enough to get me into this club?

Cool strap, by-the-by!

Brown leather on one side that looks sweet with the pickup covers, tan suede on the other that (almost) matches the color of the fretboard.
I think I like the suede side better.

No need for a number... I don't own this and have no connection to the CL ad that this pic was attached to, but I thought it would be a perfect fit for this club!

i came up with this final design after making numerous prototypes. Handmade in the U.S.A.
it cures issues with neckdive, heavy basses, & physical issues that us bass players develop ( sadly ) as our bodies age, as it centralizes the weight of the bass & distributes it evenly across both shoulders, down the core ( spine ) to the hips.   
or can be worn more conventionally 
under a shirt 
or under a sport coat 
& can be worn in a high position as well 
i'll take a # |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2012 Location: Seattle WA | | I found this on eBay from a leather worker down in LA. It's perfect for the Forte-X I recently purchased. I contact cemented some dyed black sheep skin on the back for extra padding. Same guy is currently making me a 3" wide one with diagonal set pyramids and bigger spikes. I'll throw some pix up of that when I get it. Does this club give out numbers?
