This is a really stupid question, but i'v been wondering it for a while so I might as well ask. What kind of strap does Marcus Miller use? If I could find out what brand it was i would probally get one similar LOL

Hi, Just to inform every one.
I made Marcus original concho strap. I just received the strap back to repair it after 13 years and to make some new one's. I made straps back in the 80's and 90's before I went to work for Fender Custom Shop.
Now, I'm back making guitar straps full time.
Thanks,
Dru WhiteFeather

Hi, I must clarify, my name is Duncan Clark. Through my company, Longhorn Leathers LLC, I have been hand crafting premium quality, custom guitar and bass straps since 1993. I first learned to make straps by studying the design of Dru Whitefeather, who has been in and out of business a few times over the last couple of decades, and I am often asked to make Marcus Miller style straps. The link you shared is Not my web site. It was a school project, completed years ago by a favorite relative of mine, which ended up online and I am too low tech to get it deleted or changed for accuracy. The link includes an incorrect email address for me, and way outdated pricing. I feel badly if people have been trying to reach me at the old email address. If anyone has questions for me I will try to answer. Best regards, DuncanThe original strap that MM uses was made by a guy who's been out of business for many years, IIRC. Here's a company that crafts an excellent reissue of the MM strap. Too rich for my blood, but this is the only outfit I'm aware of that makes them:
