The title of the article is actually "Moody Leather Gets Sexy."

I not only bought all of Alembic's made-by-Moody's straps, but I ordered a bunch of Moody's own for my non-Alembics as well. Alison is very nice to deal with, and is not too hard to look at as well, LOL! jalevinemd Intermediate Member Username: jalevinemd Post Number: 152 Registered: 12-2003 Posted on Saturday, April 02, 2005 - 12:28 pm:    My Alembics get Moody's as well. But, for anyone interested, Franklin makes a beautiful 4" soft leather strap that you can't beat for the money. My Gibsons have to "settle" for those. I can't remember for sure, but I think I paid in the neighborhood of $40 or so at Sam Ash. No nicer strap out there in that price range that I've ever found. I'll post a pic of a Franklin and Moddy side by side later on.

I got a good deal at Moody's...they were considerably cheaper without the Alembic logo on 'em, and you get a discount for quantity.
