Special homemade strap for my SnoGlo

Post by Keef »

My girlfriend is a very talented seamstress and makes me special straps for each of my basses.

Here's one she just finished for my SnoGlo 4003. Classic black, using Stingray leather which features a beautiful white 'gem'. I hope I'm not offending any anti leather folks!

Aside from adding vintage type knobs, I think it's the only mod I'll do with the bass! I've used it on many gigs of vastly different styles and a few recording sessions, and it nails it every time. Plus people LOVE how it looks :-)

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

So, she does straps......and cookies?!

Looks good Keith.

The one pictured in a couple of the 'SnowGlo adventures' thread pics, is one of my Brookwood Leather vintage style straps in dark brown.

both (bass and strap) look good Keith! Got any of just the strap laid out?
