TomE Report post Posted December 3, 2023 Made an adjustable guitar strap for a friend. HO bridle leather lined with black napa leather. He is buying a guitar with a honeycomb pattern on the top. I couldn't figure out how to neatly stitch a honeycomb so I came up with an art deco type pattern with several hexagons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieselTech Report post Posted December 3, 2023 Beautiful guitar strap. Looks great! Love the stitch work. How does that style of guitar strap fasten to the guitar? I've always wondered. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
