Hi guys.

I've just received my leather strap from loren bailey. Very happy with it - but thought I would check that it wouldn't damage my mandolin to be storing it in the case still attaached to the mando.

Cheers
Matt

I have an f-style mandolin, and have had a leather strap on it since March 2003. I have taken it off maybe 3 times since then and I have yet to see any damage from the strap.

I leave the strap in the scroll and I take the strap off the tailpin. Then I fold the strap into the hole on the treble side of my mandolin in the case.
