Custom strap sources?

Sign in to disble this ad
I want a custom strap- black leather. I just want it 42" from hole to hole, with hoes big enough that I don't have to ream them out from strap-locks. I don't want any adjust-thingies on the end. I just want a nice soft comfortable 2 1/2 strap.

Past that, a nice custom job would be nice but not necessary- something you don't see everyday if custom. Maybe my initials. These look nice and I love the style but I don't thnk they will do a fixed length for me.

Suggestions?

Have you ever heard of longhollow leather? Guy named Phil down here in TN makes them by hand and he'll make you a custom leather one most likely. I just got one as a present for christmas, Long Hollow Leather Home Page

amazing straps.. Practiced for 5 hours with my band and a rather heavy bass without getting any shoulder or back pain.

Most hoes come already reamed out, so that shouldn't be an issue.
