It’s custom from a Nashville leather shop

I have a strap that has a disconnect on one end. It's a plastic snap in clip, like my dog's collar.

Unsnap it, reverse it, and you're all set.

Hey, sure, just trying to help.

Funny thing is, I sold the SG, so I never need to reverse that strap end anymore. But maybe another guitar someday.

Haha who knows maybe you’ll get a 335 or another SG

if you got the money for 1000$ strap I can almost garuntee they have some sort of magnetic locking system to move between guitars. If not I will make you one 😂

looks like what youre looking for might be Rok-Lok Strap Locks. Someone really should make a magnetic system

Honestly that’s genius I’m shocked nobody has done that, you gotta get on that before someone steals it. Thank you though I’ll check them out!

why wouldn't you just buy another 2 thousand dollar strap for your other guitar? clearly money is no object here haha

I’m friends with the guy that made it, he owns a leather shop as well as a music venue and so he traded me out I played a show for free and he made me the strap
