I bought 3 guitar straps this week !! I have no life !!
In my boring world I decided I needed a guitar strap to play my Les Paul copy, so I checked on E-bay to see what was available. I found a Perrin 2" black cotton strap from Musician's Friend and ordered it. It came yesterday. I tried it out and really liked it so I bought another two, one for my D-18 and one for my Ibanez Bass guitar. Hopefull with the straps I'll practice more now. You can get them at the Musician's Friends Website for about $6.99 plus shipping. They are really nice straps !! I used to have other straps but can't find them now...they must be buried somewhere in my studio. .

you're posting in the Coffee House and claiming you have no life? Have you read anything here?

I have no life. I bought three guitar straps this week. I put them on my guitars, adjusted them. That's the big news for the week...pretty boring if you ask me. However the straps do a great job of holding up my guitars, plus they look nice, so I guess that really is a positive step, even though a small one.
These are not fancy straps. No fancy leather with company logo's burnt into them, no cheap nylon, no Indian beads, no fancy do-dads, no skull and bones,.....just your plain old ordinary black cotton strap. They do the job and were dirt cheap. Perfect.

I bet I have less of a life than you. In fact my life is so non-existent that I'll even argue about it. How much less of life can you have than that?

Earlier this week, I manually re-saved every single Z3t4 preset in my host's browser so that I could access them directly from Logic, w/o opening the synth's GUI.
Beat that. ;)

Your time will come. I've gone all winter without buying any musical gear. Actually I haven't bought any musical gear since I bought my Sonar X2 upgrade last October.

Work hard, save your money, don't go swimming with bow legged women, and someday you too will be able to afford to buy guitar straps.

I bought three new (Planet Lock) straps last week too!
A starry one for handmade guitar #1, a black one for my (black/maple) Jazz Bass, and a deep red one for Ruby.
Neat design, I'm very impressed.

No Life = Guitar Straps
Jonbouy may not get the humor in that one
(or will he?)

He won't understand unless you add a "u" to humor.

And "No life" includes "On file," "El info," "Fen oil," "Elf ion" and my favorite, "Felon I."

What we've done to "My thread, ma?" Heck, personally, I think "Dart mayhem" is best, but Bapu will obviously go with "Thy Am Dream."

I need a couple of new guitar straps actually.
My dogs ate one of my good leather one. I caught them half way through with their meal. I wept.
Ya know what else I need ... I need a new Capo. The one I have is 50 years old and is falling apart. Problem is, there's so many choices now, I don't know which one to get.
Pfft. And you thought you had no life!

I have a $40 suede Levi strap which is really nice. I use that one for my Taylor 12 string. I bought it decades ago. I had a few other straps as well but can't find them.
Now if I could only get rid of these hand cramps.....
