To be very precise, the options here are yes/yes. The animals (and woods) turned to oil do not renew at all in any feasible timeline. And they affect our atmosphere, so I do not see choices here, good ones, that is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 I've used my yellow righton with my bullet mustang for a few days now and I'm a convert - it looks great, is really comfortable to wear and the pleckie holders are more handy than I expected them to be. This one would go nicely with my white thunderbird 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Does anyone here who owns one keep their strap attached to their bass in it's gig bag? I'm thinking that the metal length adjustment thingies might scratch the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 I like my go-faster banana righton strap so much that I have now placed an order for the white righton mojo strap for my white vintage pro thunderbird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ern500evo Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Do RightOn offer non leather versions of all their straps? I was looking at the Fakey Black, with the clef symbol on, but the description states that it’s leather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodinblack Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I have the paisley blue and its really good. The only downside I would say is that it is a bit stiff. That and I sold the bass it lived with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzyvee Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I can understand the interest in vegan straps but at the moment I have no interest them or any straps containing plastic. In the past, the ones I have bought containing plastic coatings end up cracking along the edges and then being scratchy on the the exposed skin of my shoulder or side of my neck. Leather ones just seem to get softer over time so tend to become more flexible and softer as they age. Also I don't trust plastic fittings that hold the tabs as my basses are pretty heavy. My straps are all leather no plastic or metal except for the straplocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
