[GuitarsCanada]

I am getting a quote right now on this guitar strap. This is the prototype I had made up. These are high quality Levy's straps. This model is 2" Polyester adjustable from 36" to 54". The logo is put on using a full colour sublimation process, not just a stamp so it's on there to stay.

One strap including shipping $25.00

Two straps including shipping $45.00

If you are using PayPal please add $1.00

Payments can be made through PayPal by clicking on the "donate" button on the main page. Just put "Guitar Strap" in the item area. Or you can send a cheque or money order to me. PM me and I will send you my address.

Here is a sample of a 3" x 10" bumper sticker. Pricing is not too bad. Depending on quantity ordered.

The straps are in !!!!

I need to find a suitable shipping package and then find out what the shipping costs are going to be. The straps themselves can be had for $18.50 plus shipping. Taking orders now.

[GuitarsCanada]

The bumper stickers are in too. They cost me $1.00 each, so if you want some of those, throw a few bucks in and I will send those with the straps.

[GuitarsCanada]

Orders are flying in, get yours while the supply lasts.

So, I have one over my shoulder right now, and let me tell ya's, the picture did NOT do these things justice.
Very soft... very smooth.... but they seem to be VERY well made. Sturdy reinforcement stitching at the pressure points. The adjuster is smooth, but has a good grip.

This will be dependant on what guitar you're using, but on my Yamaha SLG100S, it just so happens that the Guitars Canada logo sits so it sort of seems to hang from my shoulder. A very good placement. On my Seagull A-Series "Folk", the logo starts further back on my shoulder, so people watching might not be able to read it at a glance.

Only one issue I foresee.... If your end-pin jack is bigger than 'standard', you're going to have a BUGGER of a time making the strap fit on, and as they're fabric, you won't be able to cut them to adjust for needing a bigger hole. On my Seagulls it was a very tight fit. Much bigger and there would have been issues.


I'll tell ya, these things are a STEAL at this price, so get 'em and get 'em quick!!

That was quick. I should have ordered 2?

[ClintonHammond]

Or three or four or more! They're great straps and would be the PERFECT Stocking Stuffer for any guitar player.

And well, the more we spread the word around, the more people we'll have visiting our forum... and the more the merrier!

You heard the man !! I only ordered 100 so get them while they last.

[ClintonHammond]

How many you got left?

Putting a count down in this thread might help spur on some people currently on-the-fence.....

;-)

[Kenmac]

I'll be making out my money order this evening and sending it your way. Looking forward to trying out these straps.

[Rumble_b]

I'm glad I put my order in right away!!

[GuitarsCanada]

For all those that ordered a strap thru PayPal this week, they will be going out tomorrow.

[GuitarsCanada]

I am going to have to revise the pricing a tad on the straps. I shipped out 5 today and it averaged $8.00 per package. I am pricing these things as close to cost as possible so the recent shipping costs are putting it out of range. The first few were much lower, I think its the packing I used this time. Had to fold the straps too many times.

Plus payments through PayPal gets skimmed for $1.50 as well. So here is the new pricing.

One strap including shipping $25.00

Two straps including shipping $45.00

If you are using PayPal please add $1.00

All orders that have been placed so far will not need to be changed. I will ship the straps out.

They are nice straps, well worth the price.

[RIFF WRATH]

oops
I guess I owe you $4.00...cheque is in the mail...LOL...when I get around to ordering bumper stickers i will include extra $
cheers

"payments through PayPal gets skimmed"
There isn't a bank in North America that won't do a money transfer from one email address to another, for way less than what PayPal costs.... and it's WAY more secure!

It's the best way to fly!

"$8.00 per package"
For standard Canada Post shipping?!?! Wow.... Are you sure you're not using some nearly over-night rate?

,-)

[simescan]

I sent the money order before I saw this post,...I O U $4:00...........

No, if you sent it already don't worry about it. We will go from here

Got my strap and bumpersticker today. This is one nice strap, significantly better quality than the one I got in the store for the same price.

Thanks GC! :food-smiley-004:

[ne1roc]

Got mine today. I have always used leather straps. This one is very comfortable and looks great! :smilie_flagge17:

[GuitarsCanada]

Glad to hear you like them, they really are pretty nice straps.

[Rumble_b]

Hopefully mine will be here tomorrow!

Anybody that wants to do the email money transfer just PM me. Lot easier for both parties. yes, standard parcel post. The stupid thing is that on a lot of them the express was like 5 cents or 10 cents more, some were a dollar more. Anything that was 5 or 10 cents I sent express.

True that Clinton!

Too darn many Canucks want to use bank transfers... the hell I'm paying $20 for say, a $15 purchase.

Everyone needs a PayPal :wink:

[ClintonHammond]

Way to miss the point "Geek".

E-mail Money Transfers beat Paypal hands down!

[Geek]

Of course, I have to misread it :rolleyes:

Tell me which bank does this magic... neither my Credit Union, TD or Royal will do this for under $20 :confused:

State Bank of India is the lowest at $8.

** edit after Cinton's response below to avoid clogging thread **

Thanks! I was thinking SWIFT transfers.

Apologies all for the hijack. We now return you to glorifying these great straps :D

[ClintonHammond]

*Edit... regarding cost of Email Money Transfers Read this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_Money_Transfer

So I road tested one of the straps @ Open Mic last night.... They're gonna be prizes in the new year, so I thought I'd tease the players. It's a really nice strap, in a I-put-it-on-and-forgot-about--it kinda way.

Well worth the $!!!

:-)

Excellent news !! Taking orders !!

[RIFF WRATH]

Clinton..I hope you had the logo showing...LOL
cheers

[ClintonHammond]

Course.... When it wasn't hidden under my collar.... I may have mentioned, that on my SLG100s, the logo sits really high on my shoulder... I fear it was probably covered most of the time.

I hope to be able to provide pics of them in action in the new year.

[Rumble_b]

Just got mine!! Very nice strap. Just gotta get used it wearing it the right way. I've always worn my straps backwards.

[ClintonHammond]

"I've always worn my straps backwards."
Why?

[Rumble_b]

"I've always worn my straps backwards."
Why?


I really don't know. I guess I just put it on that way once(probably about 13-14 years ago) and just kept it. It's not inside out but the adjuster sits out front(left hand side). Everyone I know always has the adjuster behind them. So if I wear it my normal way the logo would be on my back not out front. But I can adjust, if I start to wear them the right way there would be a lot more straps out there I could buy. Some just don't work the way I wear it.

[Chito]

Got mine today. Very nice lookin' strap. And comfie too!! Thanks GC!

[GuitarsCanada]

Your welcome, Chito. Wear it in good health.

[Kenmac]

Well mine finally arrived today and I have to agree with what the others have been saying. It's a comfortable, high quality strap and I now wish I bought more than one. I was using a Fender strap with my "Rosie" guitar before but this is much better IMO. Here's a picture of Rosie modelling the strap. :wink:

cheers

[Tarbender]

Got mine Christmas Eve.. a great stocking stuffer that never made it to the stocking. Looks, feels and works great!
