That's hand work, I can tell because I also build leather straps. Pretty nice work, not much cutting but nice stamping, I hope you find out who made it and get the story on it.

You did a nice job on the strap you made and presented to Joe. I take it that he likes it since he's been using it since!

Hehe - I noticed that too.  A recent shot at I think the Beacon Theatre showed the strap still on his '59 LP... Well done!

Haven't seen it on the '59 but he did use it on the prototype Goldtop with bigsby used for "Dust Bowl". Guess we'll have to wait a few months to see if it makes the dvd smile

It was worn at the Beacon both nights. And Ithaca, Albany, and Philly. Yep, it'll make the DVD.
