Yes I know, I am probably going to receive the wrath of the whole cafe for starting yet another strap thread, but, try as I might I cannot seem to find a decent leather strap here in the UK to fit an A mandolin with two strap buttons.
Most I have seen seem to have loops on one end, or a gurt big slot in the case of the planet waves ones. The neotech ones look nice, but they aren't leather, and I don't want one that looks like a car seat belt!
Ivan: I noticed on my travels that you have designed a very nice looking one via pine grove leathers, but.....they don't seem to be adjustable. Do you find this a problem?
This strap is for my partner who has just bought a beautiful Phil Davidson Celtic off of The Lord of the Badgers here. She has told me distinctly she wants something in black leather (come to think of it, I hope she was talking about mandolin straps
I could also do with one myself for my Weber octave, currently using a guitar strap, but it puts the mandolin at a slight angle I find.
Well, here's hoping that someone might know where I can get one for my dear lady and myself
Thanks,
Robbie
