Modern Version Of Ace Guitar Straps
We are offering our moden versions of Ace famous guitar straps models, used guitarists and musicians from the 60s. But there are some changes that have appeared with the new times:
The first thing is that Ace Straps were a little bit short according with the new standards. Around 53 inches long. Nowadays the straps are coming longer, usually around 55 inches and sometimes you can find longer versions , 59, 60, even 70 inches.
Besides, Ace straps were coming with backing vinyl ( leatherette, faux leather). Nowadays there are also straps with backing vinyl, but It is also very common to use seatbelt.
The frontside of the strap is the same: jacquard fabrics, very often with vibrant colors, inspired in ethnic patterns and kaleidoscope figures. All these stuff were very common in the 60s.
