    I searched around and didn't really find anything I liked for an A style strap.

    I like Sully's style but find them way to heavy for their intended purpose so with an old Dog leash and some boot laces I came up with this.

    I'm real simplistic, I make these from reins that I buy at a saddle shop and some boot laces. $28.00 bucks gets me 5 or six straps. I use them on my F style mandolins as well.
