Members Allan1972 Posted April 20, 2014 Members Report Posted April 20, 2014 Here is a strap that I made for my 12 year old daughter. I copied this from one I had custom made for me, I paid $450 plus exchange and shipping($495CND). Lets just say this cost me a bit less, but about 25-30 hours of time(the love I put into it is priceless). I guess it cost me a lot because the original strap inspired me to start leatherwork. What do you guys think(I used a craftaid) Alan Quote

Members Allan1972 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Members Report Posted April 20, 2014 She plays in grade 7 band second year and is doing great, also in the jazz band and loves it(I played bass in junior high as well). She is catching on way faster than I did. I seem to be better at making straps than playing. Quote
Members N5SGO Posted April 20, 2014 Members Report Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) Nice strap for sure, I might have to make one for my bass like it. It is nice to see someone so young playing one. Edited April 20, 2014 by N5SGO Quote
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted April 21, 2014 Contributing Member Report Posted April 21, 2014 Looks like you got it right ... tooled leather, linin', stitchin', buckle set (layed out to not mar the instrument), and happy young-un. Nice! Quote
Members Allan1972 Posted April 22, 2014 Author Members Report Posted April 22, 2014 thanks for the positive feed back guys. Quote
