Do you ever wonder what makes your favorite guitar player look so cool? Is it the hair or clothes? That probably has something to do with it. But so does the hardware - like their guitar. But what most players don't realize is how easily it can be to personalize the guitar playing experience with an additional accessory - the acoustic guitar strap. Expressing one's self as a musician is what playing the guitar is all about. You spend so much time picking out the best guitar for your playing style, why ruin it with a drab shoulder strap? Grab yourself an acoustic guitar strap to complete the rock star look that fits you perfectly. I've reviewed some of the top manufacturers to help you know what to expect from each one.

Fender - The famous guitar making company is also known for making great straps. With Fender you will find many simple designs. They have a patchwork series of straps that feature a simple nylon strap with a single patch - bio-hazard, the Fender logo, a red star, etc. They make for great personalization without overdoing it. Fender also offers the classic tweed Fender CD-100 best acoustic guitar if that's the look you prefer the most.

Levy's Leathers - Levy's brand acoustic guitar straps are some of the best in the industry. They offer a number of straps in their Jacquard line to add a truly authentic country western feel to your guitar. They have a number of other solid leather designs, built to last with a quality that improves over time. While they do have a few more exotic designs, if you're looking for a strap that is more business than pleasure, Levy's Leathers is the way to go.
Planet Waves - If you're looking for a more entertaining strap to express your true musical personality, then you'll want to check out the ones by Planet Waves. They offer a variety of imprinted straps featuring idols like Joe Satriani or the Beatles. I was also impressed with their World Tour collection that features straps imprinted with various rain forest, tribal, tiki or other multi-cultural designs.
Perri's Leathers - If you want a more colorful design, then do a quick internet search for Perri's leather straps. They specialize in high resolution imprinted straps featuring patterns like flames and stars. They also have a few dedicated to icons like Marilyn Monroe and Bettie Page. Perri's also carries a studded acoustic guitar strap if you're looking for something more punk like that.
So there you have it. I've done a lot of shopping around and been most impressed with these manufacturers. You're sure to find an acoustic guitar strap that fits your personality and playing style if you stick with these merchants. And once you've got your look established, then you're ready to move on to the next step in becoming a rock star - practice!
