Topic: Racing guitar strap

[Don R]

I made a guitar strap from our expired 3" NHRA approved seat belts. It's really comfortable, looks bad a$$ and my guitar teacher wants one for his banjo. Mine has the metal pull down adjuster from the shoulder harness, of course it needs to be plastic. My question is, I just melted the button hole for the posts to slip through and am sure they willl loosen with time. Any ideas on clip on posts or a way to improve the ends?

Stitch them or back the ends up with animal skin.  A sparing amount of Gorilla glue would keep it from fraying, too.

Did you check Tandy leather?

You could sew on leather ends, of course.

Maybe something here would spark an idea.

Just like anything else, we need pictures.  But I think all you need is some stitching.  And also, stitch a fold at the end.

Sounds like the perfect strap for some Straplocks.

And honestly, I want one. Or four.

Thanks for the ideas, I'm thinking straplocks too.
