About
The Seventh String Guitar Strap began with a call to Master Leathersmith
Michael Keiley from his cousin, a superlative guitarist and veteran
performer who was seeking a strap to meet his threefold needs of comfort,
durability, and secure handling of his valuable guitar.
Keiley, whose most widely-recognized work is the iconic journal featured in the motion picture epic Dances With Wolves, began fabricating prototypes and sending them to his cousin for "torture testing and evaluation". The quest for the finest available leather guitar strap was on, and the results are offered on these pages.
From his studio in Atlanta, Georgia, Michael hand-cuts and assembles each Seventh String Guitar Strap with uncompromising attention to finish and detail. "I have learned a great deal about the passion guitarists feel, not just for the wonderful music their guitars can produce, but for the instruments themselves," he says. His commitment is to consistently produce a product which enhances the connection between the player and the played.
