Help with a Question on Guitar Straps

Post by **phjim** » April 7, 2008 10:05 am

Need help answering a question that I received.

Awhile back there was an article in the Coconut telegraph about the family that makes Jimmy and Mac's guitar straps. Of course my copy of that issue has been responsibly recycled and I can find no clues as to links etc to find that info. Is there any way you can help me out with this. My kids have permanently disassembled my faithful strap of thirty years and I am having trouble finding a replacement that works as well.

Lord Ghod...ain't that the truth!

Even as a tax deductible expense...that's a lotta bread just for the strap. I've had guitars that cost less than one of Jimmy's custom straps.

Here is Tina's custom guitar strap:

To go with her Gucci shoes she wears onstage:

I've always wondered about this strap. She's a vegetarian but has a snake skin G-Strap???? Things that make you go HMMMMMM....

Just because you don't eat meat doesn't mean you are against killing animals for leather goods....

Too true. Checked the clearance straps and even they are too much for me. Beautiful though.

Besides...any PETA member will tell you that it's easier to terrorize old women for wearing fur than to discuss wearing leather with big biker dudes.

Here is another link at their site with photos of going to the 2007 Indy concert.

I remember Jimmy giving them a shout-out during the concert or during the interview.
