This strap is fairly good for the price, but it's got a problem: the holes for the strap pins tend to get loose and ripped with time, so I recommend using strap locks with this. The finish is perfect and I like the texture a lot, it's not padded so I recommend not using it with heavy guitar. I use this strap on my Yamaha Pacifica and it's also well balanced: the guitar won't dive or hit you in the face no matter how neck or body heavy it is. I suggest you to buy this with strap locks and it surely won't let you down.
