Soak a cotton strap in wine for 14 nights, and be astounded at how cozy you'll sound.

I've had my old standby nylon strap on the LP lately instead of leather. Wouldn't say it's smoother but it's a little more slick, and it's easier to get the level sitting exactly where I want. Plus the strap hasn't been washed in almost 30 years, so there's a layer of top-end grit that really cuts through.

Then there's when you take the strap off and sit down. The lack of a strap makes it open, airy and transparent sounding.

You don't know how many guitars I've had that were wonderfully resonant, but all the mojo slipped away because the way the strap and my body coupled with it killed all the vibrations.

I have a key update. I was a bit unhappy with the tone in one of my guitars. I tried all kinds of straps and nothing, it still sounded flimsy.
I just put strap locks and it's just exactly what I needed. Much heavier and tighter tone. Highly recommend.

left straps dont sound as good for the most part, better to use a righty strap flipped over to get the best tone

Did you know despite playing lefty, Cobain never cut a record with a lefty strap?
