Here's another rookie question for you vetrans! I've been screwin around with my Yamaha BB for a couple months now. I'm startin to get decent! Now I want some more style! I have a metalic orange Yamaha bass (sick lookin) with a fender rumble 100 amp (nice). I want a custom stap (preferrable 4' black leather) I want a pipe in the middle of strap (mainly green with light brown, silver bowl, "Pipes" written in center of pipe - orange letters, small orange flame out of bowl, and light trail of grey smoke!
Sounds sick eh?, Who can do it at a reasonable price?
thanx

| | | | "Custom" and "cheap" are usually incompatable in the same sentence. |

Along with a spare cable.
I made a duct tape strap, but it was too slippery. Most of my basses are slightly neck heavy and it just didn't work  |
