Bluesman Report post Posted March 21, 2012 Well, I think I finally have something to show off. the last 2 months have been a real blast. Thanks for all the help here. I have a 3" Veg Tan 8/9 oz., tatooed with basket weave and a cam border, backed with 2/3 oz. Got the hardware from Tandy today. Finish is Oil, Med Brwon Antique, Neatlac. Straps are Dark brown dye and Neatlac. Used Bob Park for the tutorial on edges. Added a touch, Lower loop to hold the cord out of the way. The other guest in the photo are my 1955 Gibson Les Paul Jr. and my own, hand wired ,hand built Fullertone tube amp. This combo rocks. Critiques as always. Thanks, Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sylvia Report post Posted March 23, 2012 Very cool! I love the idea of the cord keeper on the strap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesman Report post Posted March 23, 2012 Thanks girls. The cord keeper also keeps the guitar on the strap. I've had two axes hit the stage when the cord pulled on the strap. Used strap locks and don't really like them. So I am going to try this. Thanks Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
