Hello everyone! In this series, I'll be introducing guitar and bass straps that are currently available at Sound House over the next two articles. I’ll cover detailed aspects such as differences in materials and how they fit, so you can use this information when you go to make your purchase.
No.10 AIR CELL / ASG70N
First up at 10th place is this strap, which, as the name suggests, makes the most out of "air"! It features an air-cushion pad called AIRCELL that traps air in block sections. This design reduces the strain on your shoulders and minimizes fatigue during long playing sessions. If you’re interested in fluffy, cushioned straps, be sure to check this one out!
No.9 Fender / Fender 2" Monogrammed Strap, Black/Yellow/Brown
Next up at 9th place is the classic Fender Monogram series strap in White/Brown/Yellow that is a favorite among many guitarists. This strap has undergone several updates to its backing material over time, transitioning from leather to faux leather and then to nylon. The current version features embossed Fender logos on the leather ends, though in the past, unembossed leather was used. The strap is also available in limited edition colors beyond the standard options, which is a great choice for collectors.
No.8 Comfort Strapp/ Pro Guitar Long 100-117cm
In 8th place is the Comfort Strapp / Guitar Strapp Long, which is designed with the concept of lifting from the shoulder as its focal point. While the brand may be unfamiliar to some, this model is highly popular at Sound House. The strap is thick and features excellent cushioning, earning rave reviews for its comfort—truly living up to its name. It's definitely a product worth trying out!
No.7 Levy’s / MS26 BLACK
In 7th place is the popular Levy’s MS26 Black, a model from the renowned strap manufacturer. Made from soft, supple high-quality suede leather, it provides an excellent fit and comfort. The suede material offers a unique grip, reducing the risk of slippage and headstock dips, even with guitars that are prone to headstock falls like the SG or Randy V. With its simple yet luxurious appearance, this strap comes highly recommended for all guitar players.
No.6 Fender / Vintage Tweed Strap
Next, in 6th place is the Fender Vintage Tweed Strap. This strap features the same iconic tweed design found on amplifiers and guitar cases, adding a classic touch to your gear. The prominent F logo printed on the ends catches the eye, while the relatively affordable price is an added bonus. For fans of Fender, this is definitely a strap you should consider adding to your collection!
