I got a $50 Carvin gift certificate for Christmas from my sister and was thinking about getting one of these. Or is there one you would recommend instead?...........Thanks ............tom

I like my padded, wide leather Levy's strap. I believe it was around 50 bucks, but well worth it. Don't cheap out on the strap.

I have a Levy deluxe gigbag for my Ibanez ATK305. Is one of the best gigbags i´ve seen. Excellent quallity.

Just bought one the other day and put it on my heaviest bass, very nice. The price on it was $50 and I never thought I'd spend that much on a strap but it is well worth it.

Garment leather, padded, and wide is the way to go! I have several Levy's straps and love them...excellent quality.

I have both, a gig bag and strap form Levy's...excellent quality. You won't be disappointed.

Most of my staps are Levy's straps, 10 or 11 out of 14 maybe. I also own a levy's gigbag, I use this one bag to take my basses out to gigs (I leave hsc's at home). I highly recommend Levy's stuff!

Are they only 2.5" wide?...........thanks

I happened to aquire one with the used cirrus fretless I picked up awhile back. Still using only it, and it's still going strong. Comfy thing... I'd buy another.

they're very nice, i got the "seat belt" leather one. Cost me about $80 CAD but it was well worth it. Excellent quality.

I have the one from Carvin, and the answer is yes, it's 2.5" wide. Excellent quality though...it's a Levys.

I tried findind a Web site for Levy's and can't seem to find it, anyone have a clue?

I've had my solid black padded 2.5" leather strap for a little more than three years and I swear by it. It's got strap locks and I just move it from bass to bass. They get even better when they're all broken in. Wow. This thread just made me appreciate my strap a lot more.

I'm gonna get the DM1SGF I think. I've got a couple older Levys that I use now

Thanks guys. James, that's the one I'm looking for.

Weight and neckdive aren't issues with my Levy 3" leather. Excellent padding, top quality leather, still looks like new. I use it with about a dozen basses with Dunlop Straploks.
