TomSwede Posted November 17, 2010 Report Posted November 17, 2010 This is 2 guitarstraps that I made for a couple of friends. The red and black one is for the band Loch Vostok front man Ted. Totally free hands apart from V logo and black and red. We think alike in many things so I had a great feeling for what he wanted and is now happily touring with the strap across Europe The black and blue one is more a personal thing for Ronnie Ripper featuring a carving from a cartoon style drawing of him that he provided, other than that I had free hands. Split in the back was required and the connecting strap width is matched exaxtly to his wireless transmitter. I saw Ronnie play live with it last saturday, dude was glowing in the dark ;-) Critics welcome!!

Members Nighthawk Posted November 18, 2010 Members Report Posted November 18, 2010 Very nice!! I was actually asked to do a guitar strap a few days ago, so it's great that you posted these. I haven't made one yet, and I haven't had a chance to look into it. So this was a very helpful thread- gives me some good ideas!

That looks awesome Tom. The two above look cool too. The red is very rich in color, what type of paint is it that you're using?
