I kinda don't like the strap. I'd like to make a braided one from leather lace. I remember doing landyard stuff a million years ago in summer camp; it ain't that hard. I figure I could design something myself; I remember the various types of stitches. What I need to decide is do things--
How to attach one end of the strap to the button at the tail piece. I figure I'd want some sort of slip-knot.
How to make the strap adjustable. I like to tie my strap to the peghead as I don't like the balance when using the button at the base of the neck. I thought maybe just leaving some extra lace and then I could retie it if I wanted to change the length but I don't know if the extra lace dangling would be annoying.
Any ideas?
Anyone have any designs?
