    I'll echo the sentiment that Couch straps are amazingly good, and their customer service is second to none.

    I own one, and will own at least two more before the year's done.

    I prefer the veal calf leather straps with baby harp seal ears used for the ends.

    I use Couch straps on all of my guitars. Not because they're vegan, just because I like the design.

    Also, i bought my gf a cool ladies wallet made from the interior of a '60s pickup.

    That's ridiculous.

    Harp seals don't have ears.

    Never leave ANY strap in contact with your guitar. Even leather and cloth and nylon straps can and will react to a finish. Keep the guitar in the case, and the strap in the pocket.

    When you've had budget guitars for a number of years, you may find that your old instrument is holding you back. A quality guitar can inspire you to write great songs, improve your understanding of the Gdim chord while in the Lydian Mode, cure the heartbreak of cystic acne--and help you find true love in the process.

    When I am done clubbing baby seals on polar ice flows I like to use their skins to make supple guitar straps.
    Gravity...its just a theory

    When a baby fur seal walks into a bar, it never asks for canadian club on the rocks.

    The OP asks a simple question, and people have to come out with less than intelligent comments.

    You can try chains like Peter Steele of Type O Negative did.
