"The Nail" & "Fat Nail" - Handmade minimalist leather guitar strap
The Nail & Fat Nail caught in the magic hour afternoon sun.
Handmade by me and one of a kind.
Tall, slim, bare bones design that seems to be very popular with younger audiences (this quote makes me sound really old...) or people without back problems who want to look cool. Heavily influenced by certain handsome chaps from Sheffield, who seem to like simplicity.
As always, I had to put my twist on things. Simple doesn't have to be inferior to more complicated designs. Every edge and every hole has been beveled and burnished as usual. The strap will not cut your neck or rip through your favourite shirt.
Solid brass buckle, UK sourced.
Traditional solid brass saddlers rivets keeping it in place, same source.
Two options, 3/4 inch (Nail) and 1 inch (Fat Nail) wide. Around 48.5" to 55.5" long. Two of each made.
100% vegetable tanned leather. Smooth finish with some natural marks showing through.
Light orange in colour. It will darken slightly with use over the years.
Now, I know where the mentioned handsome chaps from Sheffield sourced their straps. I was invited to their guitar world to have a look. They were $100+ when I checked last year.
Mine are better.
Buy here for £69.99
More colours will come. Custom lengths can be made.
These are 100% handmade by me in my studio, located in Hampshire, UK.
I'm a touring guitar technician by night, leather smith by day and these are the result of years of listening to artists feedback on their experiences with their current guitar straps, backed by my own creative flair and over a decade of experience in leather working.
