How to choose the perfect strap for guitar or bass?
The choice of strap should be based on several criteria to ensure optimum comfort and a style that matches the musician's personality.
Material: Leather straps, like those from BG Franck Bichon and Bourbon Strap Guitar, are ideal for long sessions thanks to their robustness and comfort. Fabric straps, on the other hand, are lighter and allow for more varied patterns.
Width and length: For heavier instruments, a wide strap distributes weight over a larger area and reduces pressure on the shoulder. Adjustable models are essential for adapting to different playing heights, offering personalized comfort and ergonomics.
Design: Style is an expression of each musician's personality. On The Guitar Division, musicians can choose between vintage designs with Tom's Vintage Straps and modern styles with GET'M GET'M INC.
The Guitar Division: a platform for quality accessories
The Guitar Division stands out as a platform dedicated to musicians in search of quality. Unlike large chain stores, it offers unique products, often handcrafted by artisans. Each strap featured on the platform combines manufacturing quality and originality, whether in materials or design. So guitarists and bassists can stand out from the crowd with customized accessories.
Strap care and durability
To prolong the life of your strap, it's essential to look after it properly, especially if it's made of leather. BG Franck Bichon and Bourbon Strap Guitar leather straps require regular cleaning and treatment to maintain their suppleness and appearance. Fabric models, like those from Tom's Vintage Straps, can be cleaned more easily, but it's always advisable to avoid excessive contact with moisture.
Straps that combine comfort, style and quality
In conclusion, the guitar and bass straps available on The Guitar Division are much more than mere accessories. They reflect the personal style of each musician, while guaranteeing optimal playing comfort. The Guitar Division is the preferred destination for guitarists and bassists in search of quality and distinction, offering a range of straps to suit all requirements, whether in terms of comfort, durability or style.
