what kind of guitar strap do you use?


it'be be better if you posted a pic...but hey descriptions are good enough.

currently i am using a black simple "ernie ball" strap.

a friend of mine is going to the US on thursday so i asked him to get me a dimarzio clip-lock "white" for my RG350DX.

what are you guys using as straps?

I use a mixture of the Dimarzio cliplocks and a Dunlop Camo model.

both are pretty good straps... not too wide either.

I use the generic solid color straps they sell at GC for like $5. They do the job.

DMZ cliplok.
I sit when playing a lot, but even when sitting I prefer to have my strap on.

I just use a standard black nylon strap, nothing special. I think it's mde by dunlop or something, I can't remeber. I'd really like on of those wide, thick padded nylon straps.

DiMarzio Clip Locks. I haven't bounced a guitar since I started using 'em.

Me too.
Exactly like this.
IMvHO, If you have a DiMarzio, you hate any other strap.

I have a couple of leather straps with schaller locks. The leather keeps the guitar in place without sliding. All the nylon straps I've tried have just been too slick.

several planet waves cliplocks w/ dunlop straplocks on several guitars.
the jem has an elastic strap w/ dunlop straplocks
the rg has dimarzio cliplocks.
the bass has some black nylon generic strap that's perfect for it.

A couple black, very worn, soft leather straps. Never did me no wrong, and it fits all guitars. Don't need a straplock because I don't engage in 'guitar acrobatics'.

I use Planetwaves straps. My most used strap now, on my RG2027, is a Planetwaves strap without the locking mechanism. I use the standard 2027 straplocks with the Planetwaves (Similar to Dunlop Strap Locks. They work great!) The Planetwaves is black nylon, with leather ends, with I attach the locks to. The Planetwaves straps have the most comfortable shoulder padding that moves with you and your guitar. Never play a regular strap again.

Gibson Leather Strap,... I am alergic to nylon and the paiting thing on straps. I have this leather strap for six years, it looks and feels like new.

DiMarzio Clip-Locks all the way. I couldnt and wouldnt use anything else now. They are just soooooo good.

Most people on here will say this also. As you can see.

Black DiMarzio exclusively (oh, yeah, got one in Vai-green as well, but it's just too tacky to use )... Anything else just doesn't look right on an Ibanez.
