We've been working with the fine folks at Moody straps to develop a suitable strap for our basses. These straps are 4 inches wide, then taper down to 1-1/2 inches on the front. The adjustable back is 1 inch wide.

This caramel color of the sample will not be available on the first order.


Colors available are:
1. Black leather with tobacco suede middle, black suede backing and brown stitching

2. Chestnut leather with beige suede middle and chestnut suede backing and chestnut stitching

Both have a burnished gold Alembic logo embossed on the front. The leathers are incredibly supple and extremely comfortable to wear. Even if you wear the strap close to your neck it doesn't cut in. The wide strap distributes the weight over a larger area of your shoulder for less fatigue.

Price is $95 retail.

The chestnut brown has been modified to have a copper embossed logo.

We're expecting the first batch of straps on March 10th, so we'll start shipping the preorders then. Only a few of each color are still available.
