    I have one of his Gilmour/Hendrix straps (as a result of your recommendation). Very sorry to hear this. RIP

    Oh dear, that’s awful - obviously you knew him personally - very sorry for your loss.

    What a shame. I often browsed his website and promised myself I'd treat myself to one of his straps if I ever got myself a 'proper guitar'.
    I'll get a round to buying a 'real' guitar one day.
