Preserved in pristine New Old Stock (NOS), unused condition, this original Vintage 1960s Bobby Lee Skinny Leather Guitar Strap is an authentic piece of American music history. Stamped "MADE IN USA" directly into the raw leather underside, this strap represents the exact factory accessory bundled inside hardshell cases with golden-era instruments from Gibson, Fender, Gretsch, Guild, and Martin throughout the 1960s.
Built from durable 5/8" black bridle leather with a natural tan underside, it features a period-correct nickel tongue buckle and a sliding, contoured shoulder pad lined with thick off-white fleece to distribute instrument weight and prevent shoulder fatigue. The button keyholes remain completely tight and un-stretched, and the leather is supple, clean, and crack-free. An essential accessory for completing an investment-grade vintage guitar outfit or dressing up a Custom Shop reissue.
