In November , my wife went behind my back and ordered something for me . She said I was going to love it ... Well I get home one Friday night in November and there is a gift wrapped box about 14 inches long and 4 inches wide ( I know what you are thinking ,,,stop ! ) . She said I was going to like it .
I open it up and Its a light box with a slide top . It was A Guitar strap from a company Called Revo. Its Mahogany . I didnt do a good job of Disguising my displeasure and The Moment I pulled it out , I said nothing and she immediately saw it on my face. Gentlemen and ladies of MLP.,,,,,,, A guitar strap is personal . You just dont shop for a strap and say “here you go “ .. It has two High test strings that run the length Of the strap .. I told her I cant use it on my Les Pauls Because I use Strap Locks ,but I would Use it out on my Taylor when I play live the next time .. that would hold me off for a while but she kept asking me when I was going to use it when I went off for Rehearsal . Well that time is NOW ,, we play this Saturday for the first time in Summerville . So I Installed it on my Taylor . It was a fight to get that hard Leather button hole open ,but with some help from the other guitar player , I made it happen. And I gotta tell you ,, its pretty dang nice . I texted the Revo page and got the OWNER of Revo and he was pretty cool . This strap is tested for up to two hundred lbs of pressure . He said he would take it back because he didnt like any dissatified customers . That is service , so I m keeping it ,,here is a picture of it on my fat ass ! Its is surprisingly really a comfortable strap ... one more thing .. I about hit the roof when she told me she spent $ 89.00 for a strap !!!!!!!!! That part I don’t appreciate . I can get three Comfort Brand Straps for that price that will last me 8 years each . .. read that again,,,, 89.00 !!!! Do any of you use the Revo brand straps ? Any negatives ( other than 89.00) Overlook my fat ass,,, I m working on that .. two weeks in on a diet and I could munch on this strap right now !
