Offering timeless utilitarian style and reliable stage comfort, this Vintage Unbranded Wide Saddle Leather Guitar & Bass Strap is built from substantial full-grain cowhide in a rich saddle tan finish. The underside features a dark brown roughout suede flesh side that provides natural, gentle friction against clothing to distribute weight evenly and prevent neck-dive on heavier solid-body electrics and basses.
Designed with a traditional 5-slot woven feed-through ladder tail, this strap is 100% metal-free—completely free of wire buckles, clips, or rivets to protect delicate nitrocellulose lacquer and high-gloss finishes from dings, scratches, and buckle rash. The leather is broken-in, pliable, and comfortable on the shoulder. Showing only gentle cosmetic impressions around the button keyholes from previous instrument mounting, the strap remains structurally robust with firm, reliable button slots.
