mjcodina Report post Posted July 28, 2022 Hi everyone. Its been years away from this forum figured it would be beneficial to get back to learning from you all. Here's an acoustic wrap I made this spring. I've done a handful of telecasters and I gotta say I prefer doing those which I can just permanently lace on as opposed to doing it removable with a zipper like this one. I'd imagine there are at least a few other people on here who do leather wraps as well. I'd love to know what you guys think of this. There are definitely a few areas in the pattern and construction that I can improve on for the next one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does affect the tone somewhat but it doesn't dampen it as much as you would think. Depends on the style of guitar of course which will have more or less affect on the dampening but the tighter the better with these. This one's super tight. Also people going for these are more trying to look good out in front of a band so its so much an aesthetic thing but when you're playing live you're mostly hearing the sound of the pickup, much less the acoustic qualities of that guitar on stage but as a bonus these wraps help to fight feedback when playing a larger room.

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted July 30, 2022 15 hours ago, chuck123wapati said: its beautiful but how does it affect the acoustic guitar sound? My question exactly! You'd think it would muffle the sound of the guitar by preventing the wood from vibrating. And that's not an electric acoustic guitar - it doesn't have a sound pickup. I'd have no problem doing this with an electric guitar, as the body of the guitar does little if anything to affect the sound. Anyway, it's very pretty, and must have taken a lot of work!
