Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
It is built for banjo mounting. On a guitar with standard strap buttons, the end fittings may not match. Check both ends against your instrument's hardware before buying.
Leather banjo straps of this type adjust for length. Set it standing with the banjo on to find your height, then leave it.
No. If your banjo has no mounting point, you will need hardware or a luthier to add one.
Leather holds position on the shoulder better under a banjo's weight and lasts longer. Nylon is lighter and cheaper but slips more.
