Levy's Leathers 3" Wide Amped Leather Series Guitar Strap with Foam Padding and Garment Leather Backing; Dark Brown (M26PD-DBR_DBR)

The first thing I noticed was how comfortable it is. The 3-inch width and the thickness of it really helps spread the weight of my bass across my shoulder. Even during longer practice sessions, my shoulder doesn’t get sore like it used to with thinner straps. My back doesn't cave in on itself either, which is a huge boon. Keep in mind that my bass doesn't compare to the heaviest of basses, but my classic 70's Fender Jazz Bass weighs in around 11 pounds with it's maple wood finish. After a while I really notice the difference, and this strap makes it much easier to handle.The leather material itself feels high-quality, soft enough to be comfortable but thick and sturdy so I don’t have to worry about it stretching or wearing out. Adjusting the length can be a tad confusing at first, I had to watch a video initially but when you set it up, it stays exactly where ya want it. It also fits perfectly in my case, I have to bend and squish it in and it always reverts back to it's normal shape after.It also just looks fantastic. The leather has a nice, clean feel that goes perfectly with the vintage aesthetic of my bass. Not flashy, just nice and professional-looking.Overall, it’s exactly what I wanted: comfortable, durable, and stylish. If you’ve got a heavier bass or guitar and need a strap that actually makes playing more comfortable, this one’s a solid choice.

Coming from my old reliable standby of the Ernie Ball nylon strap, the Levy's leather padded strap is an instant upgrade to a premium feel. Regardless of the strap being a little stiff right out of the package, the moment it rested on my shoulder, my guitar felt more, at the risk of redundancy, premium. The quality is S tier, with clean edges, precise stitching, and not a single fray or blemish. The width and padding instantly give the shoulder relief of more even weight distribution, and although only slightly wider than the straps I'd accustomed myself to, the only way to describe the difference would be to say the guitar embraced me, vs. a guitar is hanging on my shoulders. 5 stars. I was, in no way, endorsed or compensated for my review here. I bought this strap outright, and I plan to buy one for each of my guitars. I highly recommend it for any level of player looking for a simple way to instantly upgrade their guitar playing comfort experience. Thank you, Levy's. Keep up the great craftsmanship.

This is the second strap I purchased from the Levy’s Amped series. The first one went into service 18 months ago and has held up very well through daily practice and on a number of gigs. The new one is set up to be a little shorter to accommodate a few other guitars. The tan one in the picture is a 20 year-old Levy’s strap just to illustrate their durability – it’s been on more than 100 gigs. They are all very durable and super comfortable. Note I use the last bit of the strap and the final hole to make a loop for my cable. I didn’t do that on the new one because it will be utilized on an instrument that doesn’t need the loop. I noticed a few of the negative reviews complained about them being too short. I have to wonder if the reviewers realize they come with the strap set in the shortest position. You can move the tail end into any of the slots to achieve your desired length. For me, that’s 45 inches, Straplok to Straplok. Max length pin to pin is about 50 inches. So, it won’t accommodate a Flea or Dee Dee Ramone playing style; but everyone else should be able to find their happy place.The other complaint in some reviews was the suspicion that the strap may not be genuine leather. It’s a highly finished product – smooth on the top and textured on the padded side. If you give it a leather test (I did) you’ll find that both the shiny top and the textured side are real. Levy’s makes more expensive straps with fancier and more detailed leather, but the Amped series is a bargain at $29.

I've been looking for a good quality leather strap that doesn't break the bank and this almost fits the bill. To clarify, it very much would if it were about a foot longer. If you need a reference for comparison, the standard Gibson pack-in strap is much longer than this guy. I myself, am 6'3" with a long torso, and attaching this to my SG at the maximum length setting made me look like an old-school jazz player. It did a bit better attached to my Strat due it attaching to the horn and not the middle of the body. But, it's still shorter than my liking. Now I need to find a longer strap extension to make this work. The strap itself is quite comfortable and appears to be very well made, but I will only ever purchase their 'extra-long' variants if I ever purchase another Levy's strap.

Best strap possible! Made in Cannuckistan. Every strap I own is damn near identical to the other, proper leather. Maybe one button slit is a Lil bigger or smaller, but for $30 who cares. Really comfy even on my heavy arse maple C1 plus/custom. Just buy it, sore dick deal. Can't beat it. As and aside I've rocked that heavy arse Schecter for over an hour without local fatigue

I bought this strap for $17.21 - on sale. Is it cheap leather? Yes. Is the leather dry? Yes. Is it worth $17.21? Absolutly. For what I need, it is confortable and looks great.Before I used it, I put some leather conditioner on it to soften it up and and it worked wonders. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Stiff as a board out of the package. I wasn't too concerned with that, as I imagine over time it will soften up and become more pliable, but getting it onto the strap buttons was definitely a bit of a challenge. The "tail" of the strap is perhaps the shortest I have ever seen on a strap before. I'm average weight and height, and I have the strap set as long as it will go in order to be comfortable to play. If you're a big guy or have a gut, you might want to look elsewhere, unless you like playing with your guitar up by your chest. The padding is a nice and it doesn't slide around easily. It's leather, but appears to be really cheap leather. Top is finished nicely. The strap looks nice. Certainly cheap enough.

As advertised. Great strap with the padding to help with heavier guitars. Confident in maintaining the connection to the guitar. Easy to operate.

Buena opción, por el precio cumple su propósito

Uzunluk olarak herkese uygun olmayabilir, biraz kısa ama çok memnun olduğum bir askı

Fin känsla med detta band som efter ett par års användning fortfarande är i mycket gott skick

Sehr schöner Leder Gurt

Ha sido un regalo, y le resulta muy cómoda y es bonita.
