All straps are handmade and her work is amazing! I ordered this one, called the "Magic Mushroom." What other guitar could I possibly put it on? I've always used Moody straps for my Alembics because of the width and quality of the leather. They are a bit on the plain side, though. So if you're looking for something with a little more flair, I highly recommend Rachael. I'm having her make something special for my new Alembic which is in the works. Enjoy... peoplechipper Advanced Member Username: peoplechipper Post Number: 398 Registered: 2-2009 Posted on Sunday, March 02, 2014 - 10:33 pm:    Nice strap, but what does it cost? I realized looking at this that I haven't paid for a strap in about thirty years( through luck and working in the pawnshop for 14)so I have NO IDEA what a good strap costs these days...Tony. elwoodblue Senior Member Username: elwoodblue Post Number: 1521 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, March 03, 2014 - 2:34 am:    There's a cool little company in California (sound familiar? ) . https://www.couchguitarstraps.com/ I got one for festivus, I might get a matching wallet . I like how the brass on your new strap echoes the pup rings. cheers jseitang Advanced Member Username: jseitang Post Number: 332 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, March 03, 2014 - 12:04 pm:    ha i know rachael shes a friend of mine in brooklyn. she does make good straps! jzstephan Advanced Member Username: jzstephan Post Number: 231 Registered: 1-2012 Posted on Friday, March 07, 2014 - 6:51 pm:    jzstephan Advanced Member Username: jzstephan Post Number: 232 Registered: 1-2012 Posted on Friday, March 07, 2014 - 7:00 pm:    jzstephan Advanced Member Username: jzstephan Post Number: 233 Registered: 1-2012 Posted on Friday, March 07, 2014 - 7:00 pm:    (Message edited by Jzstephan on March 07, 2014) jzstephan Advanced Member Username: jzstephan Post Number: 234 Registered: 1-2012 Posted on Friday, March 07, 2014 - 7:11 pm:    speicky Senior Member Username: speicky Post Number: 479 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2014 - 1:58 pm:    ...just when I thought I've seen it all...
