New Strap Day [John Denver Content]
For the past few years, I have had a desire to have a custom guitar strap made.
I know a leather smith that does great work and his guitar straps are the best. I am a big fan of John Denver and his song "Eagles and Horses". In my mine I can visualize this scene on a guitar strap. I contacted Dave at Nay's Custom Leather and told him of my vision for the strap. Dave has a shop near Salt Lake City Utah. He said that he thought he knew what I wanted so I commissioned him to make my strap. When I picked up the finished product, I was totally blown away with what Dave had made for me. I will try to add some pictures of the strap here. [IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

That’s very impressive work. Please tell Dave that we all said “Ooooh” and “Ahhhh” with sincere appreciation and admiration for his skill.

And, in tribute to John Denver, one of us said, "Far out!"

The price was $225.00 and worth every penny. The amount of time to make a strap like this would be a lot. The cost was more than reasonable.

I think John Denver has had the last laugh, after all this time. You don't see people getting artwork made from Charlie Rich songs. |
