Haha, your face is shaped like that of Kerry King.
That strap looks cool, but I think it would not be comfortable enough. Hell I bought that $45 Levy's leather strap because I hate those cloth ones.

Haha cool, did you get it a hardware store, or online? ( I know Boogie Street are sellin them in upwards of $99)
If I wanted one, I would just get a length of heavy duty chain cut at my local hardware store, for around £15 or something.

i got it at home depot for 15 bucks and stole the caribeaners and eye hooks too so i just paid for the chain, and dirlled a pilot in the guitar and stuck em in there. Easy as 1-2-3 a-b-c, except i gotta get like 2 links cut off the chain.
And it doesnt make the guitar heavier lol, it just adds wieght, but yes it is heavy, not a problem though. Its my BLS guitar anyway, with his strings on it and tuned to his tunings. So when i play it, it feels more badass
EDIT haha yea, fred is sellin for fuckin 95 bucks, so expensive, me my friend were thinking about doing the same thing locally.

yea its not that bad, its not as bad as when i had to take a dremel to my ran and carve the inside of it to make a bigger pot fit in. Plus ive already drilled in that guitar, (les paul) and had to put a dowel rod in it and put super glue in the hole, so its had experiance with all that shit, plus i dont care if it gets scuffed, it gives it character, makes it more uniqe. For my ran on the other hand, i would rather keep that thing as nice as possible.

duh! obviously zakk doesnt care about what half his guitars look like, he has eyeholes on one of them and bottlecaps nailed to the others. And his are like 3 thousand dollar axe's. The only guitar i care about the cosmetics of is my Ran, i wont mind a few dings and scrathces here or there on my LP, gives it character.
