zZounds Gear Experts Say...
From the weave pattern to the concho, these rugged leather straps perfectly embody the American Southwest. Choose from black, chocolate, or gold.
Overview
This series captures the visual heritage of the American southwest. The hitch weave pattern combines a traditional, rugged simplicity with the subtle sparkle of a tooled concho ringed in gold braid for great presence on stage.
By using the same artful technique in crafting Franklin's padded glove leather straps, they start with a core of soft, top quality suede and place a wafer of foam on top. They then wrap it with the plush glove leather for a rolled, "upholstered" look. Another layer of foam is added on the back side and covered with glove leather. Really soft!

"Franklin Straps are the best!!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I buy a strap for each of my guitars, and I don't expect I will ever have to replace this strap, the quality of the strap, as well as the workmanship used to make it equal a strap that will last forever. But I may replace the Levy's straps I own with Franklin Straps.

Features
It's a guitar strap...
Ease of Use
Well you attatch one end to one strap button....
Quality
The engraved silver medallion is very elegant, as is the southwest strip of beadwork, and the cut of the leather strap as well. Not to mention the beautiful soft grained leather they use to make their straps. But the thing I like about it the best, is it's extra length. I am a big guy, and most "off the rack" straps are too short for me, even on the last notch.
Value
Very much worth the money in my opinion. Some reviews think these straps are a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. If you want a cheap strap, buy a cheap strap; if you want a good strap, buy a Franklin.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to find out.
The Wow Factor
Yeah, it's real nice. I think I've said that...
