General Information
I rarely do reviews on anything I buy, but my experience with Brad at Well-Hung Straps has been so outstanding I feel I have to!
I first saw the Well-Hung Shock and Awe straps on Reverb. I was mildly curious, but never inquired. Then I ran into Brad on My Les Paul Forum and started a conversation. I am retired USAF so I was curious if he had anything that might be more USAF related as most straps I had seen leaned toward the Army.
After contacting Brad, I was pleasantly surprised at how interested he was in making me a custom strap to my liking. We talked and decided to make my strap using patches from my 26-year career. All of the patches have some significant meaning to me. The 83rd patch was my first unit, the 95th patch was my final unit. The 13th Air Force patch was where I spent a lot of my career. The Master Sergeant patch was the highest rank I attained. The patch from Osan AB was significant because I met my wife there in 1982. And the Saudi Arabia patch was where I was deployed for three separate 120-day tours to the desert!
After Brad received my patches, he immediately went to work on a few different layouts so I could decide what order I wanted them in. I was amazed at his enthusiasm and excitement over my project. He had the strap made incredibly quick and on its way to me!
But, let’s get to the good part. The Well-Hung Shock and Awe strap is THE BEST strap I’ve ever owned. It has a nice amount of padding so it’s super comfortable. The back has a very nice suede that keeps the guitar in place and never allows it to slip around. The D-Ring set up is super easy to adjust! I just could not be happier!
If you are looking for a very personalized strap that will have some meaning to you and not just a piece of leather or cloth you slap on your guitar, I would highly recommend you contact Brad and work with him to get your strap right away! These are very nice and also very strong and should last a lifetime!
Oh, one last thing, the swag that came with the strap was amazing as well. Well-Hung Shock and Awe cloth patch. Well-Hung guitar picks and a Well-Hung sticker! Brad and Well-Hung Straps are Fantastic!
Here are some during and after shots!
