■This is a strap of Ken Yokoyama's signature model. In order to accommodate Ken Yokoyama's intense live performances, we have adopted a structure of approximately 4mm thickness, with two pieces of leather sewn together, each approximately 2.5mm thick on the front and 1.5mm thick on the back, to increase strength. By deliberately using uncolored split leather on the back, the strap does not slip too much and the position of the guitar is stable. By stitching the edges and incorporating grommets into the holes for length adjustment, we have prevented the leather from stretching or tearing, and at the same time accentuated the design and created a cool appearance. The Solid Bond logo and the letters Ken Yokoyama are embossed. This is a genuine leather strap made by hand by Japanese craftsmen using cowhide.

■Comment from Yokoyama Ken

""There are many different types of straps in the world, but I've been using this type for a long time (for the past 10 years, since I was 18, if I remember correctly. I'm kidding, it's been 30 years).
""Leather"", ""Black"", ""Thin"", and ""Long"". It's not easy to find something that meets these criteria. That's why this is the long-awaited Yokoyama Ken model! People often ask me, ""Doesn't this dig into your shoulder and hurt?"", but it doesn't hurt at all for me.
It's all about getting used to it!! If I buy it and it hurts and I can't use it, I'll give it to an SM lover t(ry)""
