- In this video I show you how I am making a custom leather guitar strap step by step. This is entirely handmade with passion and care for details. It features a personalized leather carving layout made especially for this strap, because let's be honest, who doesn't like something unique and made just for us?! On the top of that, to give a comfortable wearing I have chosen to put an inner dense foam padding and I lined the back with a soft sueded leather for extra grip on the shoulder, so no more slippery guitars!
I plan to be a lot more interactive. I hope you guys stick around this channel!
So make sure you like the video and watch till the end or I will steal your guitar ahahaha 😜

Now that is a guitar strap made me realize i need plan out a lot better on the one I am going to make lol Yours is awesome good job
Very well done!
Beautiful work! Well done! I really hope to see more music and guitar related leather projects. Leather stuff in general, too, of course. 😊
Thanks a lot!
Sadly I don't manage to post regularly on this channel as before and as I wish. It's the down side of having just two hands 😅 and do everything by myself. Please, visit my instagram account to keep being updated, it is the social media I am using the most and showing more contents on a weekly base. instagram.com/cuoio.sonoro/
All the best,

I love your strap, one of my favorites, especially the graphics you tooled.
Thanks a lot! It's sweet of you to say!!
Very beautiful and professional strap. I also love the quality of the video. Lots of close ups showing technique, but not showing every minute of the making, just a small piece of all the many steps it takes to make a fine product. I am just getting prepared to make my first.
Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed the video and I hope it'll be helpful for your upcoming project!! Good luck!!
Beautifully crafted...you are a true professional...
Thank you so much for your kindness!
Enjoyed the video and the craftsmanship involved in the making and videoing. As custom guitar builder I appreciate how a strap like this would complement one of my guitars. Thanks
Thanks a lot Paul for taking your time watching my video! I really appreciate, especially from a guitar builder! If you are interested in a collaboration, please keep in touch. I have already been working with several liuther here in Italy and is a lot of fun!
Beautiful!
Нет слов , красотища 🤗
Beautiful work! Thank you for showing us how you make your straps. Can I ask what you use as the lining on the backside? It appears to be fairly stiff vs something softer like a suede.
Thanks a lot! It's pig skin, it is rough, suede like, and it helps the strap being steady on the shoulder.
Before you dyed it, how do you get the indent marks to have contrasting color? 🤔
Hi Sarah, the colour contrast comes naturally during the tooling because the leather is dump and the metal tools pressed with the hammer, besides leaving a deep mark, they also darken the leather. Leather shouldn't be too dry during the tooling otherwise these kind of colour contrast is less evident.
Hope I managed to answer your question.
Thanks for watching the video!
@@CUOIOSONORO Wow, thanks!!! This is so cool, and thank you so much for responding 🙏I really appreciate it.
I would love to buy one!
Hi! Thanks a lot for the interest, here is the link to my website if you want to take a look to some other custom guitat straps I have made and there are also a few ready made basic straps available in the shop! www.cuoiosonoro.it
Bravissima!!😊🎸
Grazie mille Alex!! :-)
Gorgeous work, sir! In particular, the carving is by far the most appropriate and beautiful I have seen for a musical instrument strap. Forgive an old man for ignorance, but what is the significance of the hands you carved?
Hi, I am a lady. Thank you so much Herman. The hands have been asked from the customer and they symbolize a concert crowd.
Looks great!
Thanks a lot Jeremiah! It's so important for us makers to support each other and build a community! Can't wait to see more videos from you! Keep it up! 🙂
Complimenti 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 sei bravissima, riesci a creare opere d’arte 😍
Ciao Siro! Grazie infinite!
Hola soy John ese es un hermosa correa para guitarra en cuero ,me podrías vender el patrón de la correa de la guitarra por favor?o dónde puedo encontrarlo?,,espero su respuesta ,gracias.
what size is that hole punch for the guitar button to go through?
Oval punch found on ebay 3cm length
Amazing work l. The brushing and finishing techniques you use are a master class on attention to detail. I can tell you’ve been doing this a long time.
What foam did you use? I would like to get some and try it but I didn’t notice a product name like some of the other things you used.
Thanks for the fantastic video.
Thanks a lot Erik! I love to pay attention to the smallest details. I have started working with leather almost 5 years ago, it's an endless learning and developing process. I used a 5mm foam, doesn't have brand, but you easily find it at leather or upholstery shops! Good luck with your leather crafting. All the best!
Video fantastico!
Grazie mille Angelo! 😘
Hello, what material do you use for the padding? polyethylene?
Foam rubber bought at a local leather shop
Which tool do you use to cut the leather?
@@douglasalbuquerque4282 Hi, it is a leather strip cutter. Just 2 pieces of wood and a blade. The depth cut is adjustable and the blade replaceble. Very handy tool for strap and belts.
Nice work I will be doing some leather work with 3d printing on my channel. Guitar straps are a started work from my past so with new tech I have learned mixed with old world leather...metlman
Sooo cool!
Thanks a lot!! 😀
Where can I find the right thickness of leather for straps? Where can I buy leather starting out Thais appropriate?
Hi, I use 2mm leather thickness for padded straps and 3/3.5mm for single strip strap. I buy leather directly at tuscan tanneries.
where did you buy that dye that makes the slots for the strap adjustments?
Hi!
i’m getting ready to make my own guitar strap. what sort of leather is this, what is the thickness? do you buy it locally or online? i’m totally new to this, and you clearly are very skilled at it. any advice would be awesome. thanks
Hi, sorry for the late reply, I missed it! It's natural veg tanned leather from Tuscany, full grain, in this strap I used 2mm thickness.
5:52 what is this material you use ?
It's a 5mm foam pad!
What kind of foam is that and what thickness? Thank you.
Awesome strap by the way!
Hi, thanks a lot! it's a high density foam with an adhesive side. it's 6mm thick and I bought it at a local leather shop!
Beautiful job!!! I was wondering what you used for the padding, is it 1/4 inch high density foam?
Thanks! More or less, the thickness is 6mm!
@@CUOIOSONORO thanks!
I wish you had listed some of the tools you used.
Thanks for the interest Skash! I might do a specific video about the tools I use in the future 😉
