Wide Guitar Straps for Comfort and Stability

Our wide guitar straps are designed to provide greater comfort and stability when playing heavier instruments. With a width of 2.5 inches (6 cm), these straps distribute the weight more evenly across the shoulder, helping reduce fatigue during long rehearsals, studio sessions and live performances. They are particularly well suited for heavier guitars such as the Gibson Les Paul, bass guitars and other heavy solid-body models.

Better Balance for Les Paul and SG Guitars

A wider strap can also improve balance on guitars that tend to neck-dive, such as the Gibson SG. When combined with a suede backing, the strap gains additional grip on the shoulder, helping keep the instrument in position and preventing the headstock from tilting downward while playing.

Wide Guitar Straps – Frequently Asked Questions

What is different about wide guitar straps?

This collection includes guitar straps made with the same jacquard designs and materials as our standard straps, but with a wider webbing (approx. 6 cm / 2.5 inches). The extra width provides more surface area, which can improve comfort, especially with heavier instruments.

Can I order a standard 2-inch jacquard design in a wider version?

Yes. If you like a specific jacquard pattern from our standard 2-inch (5 cm) straps, you can order it in a wider 2.5-inch version through these product pages:

wide guitar straps with black polypropylene backing
wide guitar straps with suede backing

From there, you can choose your preferred design and order it in the wider format.

What is the difference between polypropylene and suede backing?

The polypropylene backing is smoother and lighter, while the suede backing provides more grip and a softer feel on the shoulder. Both options use the same jacquard top materials.

Can I request a jacquard design that is not listed here?

Yes. If you have a specific design in mind that is not shown in this collection, feel free to contact us. In many cases, we can produce it in a wider version.
