I started playing the guitar when I was 7. I started with a classical guitar and after a few years of lesson, I shifted to an electric guitar in Highschool. My parents bought me a cheap electric guitar for my 16th birthday and two years leather, I worked an entire summer to be able to buy myself a real Gibson SG, just like the one Angus Young was using. No need to say that my kind of music that I play or like has really been influenced by AC/DC.

So this week I made a leather guitar strap for my dear SG. I used 2.5mm/6oz veg tan leather. I tooled the first layer with a background stamp, cut the second layer, dyed the parts black and red with alcohol based leather dye. Once it was all dry, I applied two coats of leather oil, burnished the edges with gum tragacanth and two coats of Eco-Flo super shine. Then I stitched the two layers together with red polyester waxed thread. I added two round rivets to hold the last part and it was done. And no, it's not really me playing ;)

It's a pretty simple build and it can all be done in a weekend.
