Guitar/Banjo #2257

This one is an oldie and had a hard previous life. It might look quite at home on an old banjo and could certainly do daily use on an openback or Mastertone style. Comfy and easy to tuck into the case with the banjo. But many like this one end up on guitars. Additional close-up photos sent on request.

Features:

Status Available
Shoulder Piece Size 20" long by 1 3/8" wide.
Shoulder Piece Leather The best section of an old cinch strap. Top shelf quality, thoroughly broken in and floppy soft.
Shoulder Piece Stitching Just the artificial sinew that holds the straps to the shoulder piece.
Shoulder Piece Distressed Level High. Visually old with abundant surface wrinkles and one small surface blem that will sit on top of your shoulder. Definitely not a deal breaker.
Shoulder Piece Notables NOTE: There is no suede lining. The leather was skived to 1/8“ in thickness and slicked smooth on the bottom and the edges were dressed and burnished.
Strap Style Western Rein
Strap Width 5/8"
Strap Leather Nice leather - supple, strong, and a good color match. I skived it enough to level out the thickness then dressed the bottom edges and slicked the bottom smooth.
Strap Distressed Level Medium. Definitely well aged but zero issues.
Strap Notables A few inches on each end were skived thin enough to make a neat and flexible connection to the shoulder piece and secured with 2 rows of double stitched artificial sinew. Includes a custom fit for length and attachment points specified by the buyer.
