straps...

[wagnerite]

what straps do you use? on my current electric guitar i use 3 inch wide dimarzio clip locks. Being that its a "V" shaped guitar, its pretty much impossible to play without straps. the more popular two inch ones are too narrow for me, and the 3 inch one is too wide. its digging into my neck, always have to fuss with my shirt. Hopefully, i can go strapless with an EBMM. i don't play in public or anything like that... i love my footstool too much and it looks awefuly weird to see someone playing electric guitar with footstool.

so, do you go strapless too? only at home? what straps do you use when you need straps?

i use a standard black Ernie Ball strap (2" ?)

Ernie Ball Nylongurt

when I´m sitting whilst playing at home, the Morse is so well balanced, that I don´t need a strap.

when I´m standing whilst playing, the guitar is so light, that the simple standard strap does not hurt me anywhere.

I think that all EBMM guitars are both: light and well balanced.

Don´t worry

+1 (aka "me too" although I've never uttered the word "NYLONGURT")

I want one of these.....

But I think it's pretty unlikely that I'll get one.

I just use a 2" Black Nylon EB strap.

Simple and effective.

I still use the DiMarzio clip locks on everything. Really convienent, never come off and, well, I'm just used to'em after over a decade.

Dimarzio clip locks. I swear by them. Used them forever as well. I like the cotton and leather ones the best.

I use the Trench suit straps. They look like a pinstriped suit

I have a couple of Italia Leather 2.5" (thick) pebble grain straps that are very nice, purchased off an eBay store. However, straps that adjust in slot increments never seem to fine tune to the length I prefer. I always wind up going back to a 2" Levy black Italian leather strap which uses a slip clip, so it fine adjusts to exact desired lengths.

I mostly use plain cheap nylon 5$ straps with leather ends and they've never let me down.
I use Dunlop or Schaller strap locks with them (I'd love to try the new EB straplocks).

i use the 2 inch leather ebmm/evh leather straps they made for a short time. why they dont make these anymore is beyond my understanding but its the best and most versitale strap i have ever used.

 

[pantalaimon]

i use these low budget nylon straps, never had probs with em

I use the Levy's Leathers ones, black with sunflowers on them. I used to use Fender ones, but I got a ticking off by BP!

Another classic gurning face from Tim

But I can't tell if it's because the music 's great or
the blond is tweaking your bum.

Got myself a couple of custom made straps, you sparkle guys might be interested.

Sorry Tim, just couldn't resist !!

I use a 2" leather strap with no adjustment as it has no buckle to bash into the guitar. I've been playing long enough to know where I want my guitar.

The strap has Jim Dunlop strap lock which fit both my AL's.
