Making A Leather Guitar Strap (From WATER BUFFALO!)
I've played guitar for more than half my life, but I've never made a guitar strap! Weaver sent over a nice waxy Buffalo leather for us to try out, and it felt like the perfect material to make a leather guitar strap by hand. We made this leather guitar strap with natural vegetable tanned lining, and the leather guitar strap is sewn by hand using waxed poly threads.
Water Buffalo leather hides have a bit different feel to normal cow/steer leather hides. Water buffalo leather is a bit more soft and supple, and when tanned correctly (like the Crazy Horse hides from Weaver Leather) can result in a very strong, yet flexible project. I like this Buffalo Leather for guitar straps because it is worn close to the chest, and the break in period is much shorter for a comfortable fit on this leather guitar strap.
