Guitar Straps - Cotton Is Much Better Than Nylon

I have used nylon guitar straps for many years, but then one day I discovered cotton guitar straps, and I will never go back to nylon!

Nylon straps are like seat belts. They don’t have any give to them, so your shoulder takes the brunt of every movement of the guitar. Over time, this will probably cause shoulder problems!

Cotton straps have a little bit of “give” to them, and are so much more comfortable. I can play guitar standing up for much longer with a cotton strap than I ever could with a nylon strap.

Cotton straps make a world of difference!

For some reason my local guitar shops do not stock cotton straps, which is why I had always used nylon before.

You can buy cotton straps online, or request your local shop stock cotton straps as a service to all their customs, and so you can in turn support your local music shops.

The price of a cotton strap is close to the price of a nylon strap.

Also, get yourself some strap locks while you are shopping.

Cotton straps and strap locks are inexpensive, and in my opinion a very good investment.
