Thinking that would match that new Ric @nixdad
You're right Ron, it definitely would. However, I think one of my bandmates already has that strap. I use a different one (Magical Mystery Tour era) from the same series on my Fireglo Ric. Believe it or not, GC was blowing ALL Beatles straps out at $2-$3 each about 5 years ago, so my bandmates and I took advantage:
That Revolver themed strap is from Planet Waves. You should be able to find this at GC or MF.

Thanks, @12BitSlab!
We’re going to be shooting a promo video in April, so hopefully it will be ready to share before June.
For now here’s a live recording from last November:

"Catfish" is a musical nickname a partner gave me. A friend did the Catfish for this Italia strap. Unfortunately I play with a stand rather than a strap these days, but it's a beautiful strap.

From Ergo Straps in Chile, w/ Marco Bass Guitars logo. Awesome birthday present / late NAMM swag from my good friend Marco Cortes.
Went looking for a padded bass strap last year when having shoulder problems. The price on these had gone down between the time I saw them online and when I ordered from GC.
Not the highest quality leather but at 3.5 inches width it's very comfortable.
Somewhere there is a cool strap club. I know, because I started it. If only a mod could find it.....

And this Franklin saddle blanket strap, I feel, goes well with the yellowed finish of my SR. Pretty well meets all my likes in a strap - the fabric conforms and cushions my left clavicle (rather than sits on top of); the suede backing means it stays put; and has a pretty American Southwest vibe to it. And I find Franklin's very soft leather easy to attach and remove.

New threads sure are new, that's for sure.
Not so new but still here is the original Music Man strap that is absolutely brand new in (estimated) April - May 1979. Expect EBMM would tell me exactly the completion date if I ask. Roadworn it is (and kind of manky by now). And technically retired. Go ahead, pull the other leg, it's got bells.

How can that be anything but cool with a Thelonious pin and a few decades of sweat and grunge on it?
