Acoustic strap

grappagreen · July 2021

Any recommendations on a decent strap? My acoustic only has one strap button on the body so need one that attaches to the neck as well..

Thanks,

Si

Find one you like & just tie a piece of string/rope/twine etc. round the other end.

Heistercamp straps are very good, lots of options.

You can use string of some kind around the headstock, but you would be better off getting a second strap button on the neck heel.

If you don't want to add a second button on the heel and don't like the idea of using string around the headstock, maybe add this to your shopping list as well as a strap...

I've got one. It works really well and looks better than string. Although I don't use it now - I prefer a second strap button and had one fitted to the guitar that needed it.

Sorry to be late to the party, but actually this is a very nice solution that you may want to look at…

Pics of the acoustic pls

I have a few guitars with varying strap button placement but I actually do like attaching one to the headstock and a piece of shoelace does fine.
Picky opinion:
As for material; cotton is nice as it it's just tacky enough on the shoulder. Nylon slides too much and leather too little.
