Whether it’s putting ourselves out into the world via a recording or a live performance, it means putting ourselves out for everyone to hear, judge, and analyze. This can be a difficult thing for many of us to accomplish, but also can be intensely rewarding and liberating as one lets their creativity flow. The Reticent to me symbolizes the introverted, guarded, somewhat inhibited person I am that struggles with allowing myself to be vulnerable. However, when paired with the more gregarious guitar (and perhaps also with the always appreciated extroverted front man), I allow all those bottled up thoughts and feelings to flow freely. I don’t want a loud or obnoxious strap to tell my story. I want the thick, strong, durable comfort of an Anthology Gear full grain leather strap ... rugged, honest, beautifully imperfect. And I’ll tell my story through my music.

Our straps are measured from attachment hole to hole. The best way to determine your ideal length, or that of the musician you’re buying for, is to measure the previous strap. If you don’t have a strap to reference for whatever reason, we’ve assembled some general guidelines for length (supplemented with this friendly disclaimer: if you find our standard strap is too short, you can always add a jumbo tongue).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElements to consider:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1. Player height and weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • In general, players who are 6’ and under, and average weight, should be fine with a standard length strap.\u003cbr\u003e • Players over 6’, or with more weight, could use a jumbo tongue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Electric or acoustic:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Because acoustic guitar bodies are deeper, guitar players 5’10” and over will likely prefer a strap with the jumbo tongue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Placement of attachment pegs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • The strap attachment peg on the guitar can be in a couple of places. On some guitars the peg is at the top of the bout; on others, it’s placed where the guitar neck meets the body of the guitar.
