Being a musician is about allowing ourselves to be vulnerable. Whether it’s putting ourselves out into the world via a recording or a live performance, it means putting ourselves out for everyone to hear, judge, and analyze. The Reticent to me symbolizes the introverted, guarded, somewhat inhibited person I am that struggles with allowing myself to be vulnerable. However, when paired with the more gregarious guitar (and perhaps also with the always appreciated extroverted front man), I allow all those bottled up thoughts and feelings to flow freely. I don’t want a loud or obnoxious strap to tell my story. I want the thick, strong, durable comfort of an Anthology Gear full grain leather strap … rugged, honest, beautifully imperfect. And I’ll tell my story through my music. Reticently.

All Anthology guitar and bass straps are hand-made with the absolute finest quality full-grain leathers in the world. Our leathers are chosen for their ability to fully distribute the weight of the guitar across the strap, for a more comfortable playing experience on those long gigs.

Our straps are not only great looking, they’re also super-comfortable. Between a top layer of rugged full-grain leather, and a bottom layer of ultra-soft full-grain leather, we use a high-density, premium padding, to maximize comfort without sacrificing strength. We give the guitarist the best of both worlds, a streamlined padded guitar or bass guitar strap. Comfortable and durable with style!

Even better, we use only the strongest industrial grade threads, the same threads used to make parachutes and airbags. That’s strength you can trust.

To top it off, our full grain leather burnishes and beautifies with use. All of our guitar straps have their natural marks, scrapes and scars, which means they have loads of raw, rugged personality. They age incredibly, obtaining a beautiful patina rich with character.
This strap is made from our rugged Whiskey Brown leather.
