Terry , Nikki (sorry for any misspellings): I got the strap. My only concern: I thought you said you could not read my mind, but it is all too obvious that you not only could, but did. I am a very happy customer. As the governor of California would say, "I'll be back."

Michael Robinson, Eunice, LA

“Nikki, I noticed on your website that you had a picture of mine and my Dad’s guitar straps that we got for Christmas (The black on black RSP, MLP straps). I wanted to let you know that we love them and we get nothing but compliments on them. Not to mention they are so comfortable. We have since added a few guitars to our collection and will be looking to finish them off with some new straps as well. (I am still waiting for the Harley strap!).  I wanted you to know how much we are enjoying them.  Take Care.”

“Hi Dena.  I appologize fror the delay in responding! Things have been crazy hectic around here!  These three latest additions to my Action strap collection are just as fine and appreciated as the first two I got!  You folks have hinted in the past that you would like pictures of your straps in "Action" (Pun entirely intended)! I am not familier with digital cameras at present; but will set sending pic;s your way as a goal! (Can't make a promise as to when)!  I am continuing to post your site in response to occasional request's for strap recomendation's on the various forums I check up on!  I surely hope you have the success you hope for at the NAMM show!  When I last talked to Terry; He mentioned a custom designed strap to me! I am budgeted out at present for straps and such, but he planted the seed and I have an idea, and so will be in touch in the future.  All the best to you all!”

“Dear Terry and Nikki, I wanted to let you both know that I got the strap for "Candy," my bass guitar yesterday via USPS. As with the Earth Child strap on my Takamine, it is of the same high quality in both materials and workmanship. I rushed home from work yesterday and put it on. Man, what a difference! The added width makes the guitar that much more comfortable. The strap is everything I hoped it would be. I'm sure I'll have it for years. I can't wait to show it to the rest of the band. As soon as I get a digital camera, I'll take a couple photos and send them, but for now, know that I'm extremely pleased, to say the least. Keep up the good work! Yours in Christ,”

“This is what a strap's supposed to feel like! It matches my '55 Martin D-28 perfectly, and hangs on my Les Paul just right, too! (the other guitars haven't had a chance, yet.) Keep doing what you're doing, the way you're doing it, and we'll be here---buying some of the FINEST straps made! Thanks, and God bless,”

Steve Gambrell, Ware Shoals, SC

“Hi to everyone at Action Straps. I got the strap by Friday as you said - it's great and right up to the quality standard I've come to expect from you. Thanks a lot and hope you have great success at NAMM - wish I could drop by and see you there. Don't forget to put some photos on the web. Regards,”

“Hey Terry, I just got the strap, and it is fantastic. If I ever need another, I will definitely buy from you again. Five stars!  Take care.”

Steven Gallipoli, Maywood, NJ

“Hi Nikki, My son finally returned to the UK from his vacation with the guitar strap I ordered that you sent to my daughter's house in Utah. It really is a great strap and I'll wear it with pride. Wish I'd got that painted python strap too. Thanks for a great product and great personal service. Highly recommended. Best regards”

Steve Worner, Yorkshire, England.

“I received the 2 Simply Classic 200 straps on Friday and once again the quality is outstanding. Thanks for the quick service and great product.”

Steve Braswell

“Hello Terry, Well I received my strap today, and I must say I was very excited to see the FedEx truck pull into my drive-way. I want to let you know I absolutely love the strap you made for me. It looks fantastic and the quality seems to be great! I decided to put it on my Gibson LP Junior, and I don't think there could be a better strap for that guitar. The strap is very comfortable on me. It provides the height that I want, and smoothness that I like for enthusiastic playing and still gives excellent control and support. A good strap does alot for performance and this one is great. I am very proud of it. Thank you.”

Thank You, Randy Polansky, West, TX

“Hey Terry, I was thumbin through the Internet today and jumped over to your website to see if you were still making guitar straps. Not only did I find that you are, but I actually found the strap that I designed and you so beautifully made…the “Rowdy”. I always wanted a custom made guitar strap and the one you made for me far exceeded my expectations. I love it and will cherish it forever. I even put a link to your site from mine! Keep up the good work!”

“Hi Terry, Just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for the 200 strap and extra tails you made for me. Got the strap on Friday and used it right away and it is perfect. Put the second short tail on my other 200 and it is perfect too. Thanks again for fixing me up. You know I never thought I would have a $100 guitar strap, and now I can't imagine not having one (or two).”

“Dear Terry,  The straps are here, and boy, they are stunning.  The workmanship is out of this world.  Even my guitar smiled.  AWESOME.”  Regards, Andrew

“Dear Terry, I hope you receive this photograph.

This is just to show my son Will using his camera strap successfully and happily. This photograph was taken in Tanzania over Christmas. We had two cameras in use with the straps on, and they were EXTREMELY comfortable. Many thanks and a happy New Year,”

Best wishes, Steve and Sandia

“Hi Nikki, Matt from Gibson guitar here ! Sorry to have taken so long in getting back to you with a picture & quote about your awesome strap, I've been pretty busy this year, lots of travel & training for new people doing my job at Gibson.

The strap you guys made me is the best strap I have...it is sooo comfortable..I've got a few other straps I thought were good until I got the "Cold Heart" I was wrong & now I'm spoiled & won't really use anything else... I'd like to buy a few more & my bass player wants a few too ! Everyone who's tried the strap loved it.

My Cold heart makes playing guitar fun again....no more sore shoulder's after a 2 hour session's with my Gibson Gold top....just 100% fun....what Music is meant to be..thanks so much Action Custom Straps..for making the best straps on earth & making possible to play with absolute comfort !!!”

cheers

“I recently purchased a black classic 200 strap from you and I couldn't be happier with it. Great quality and the most comfortable strap I have ever owned. Thanks for the fantastic product.”

Steve Braswell

“Hello Terry,  Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I got my strap on Thursday and couldn't believe it. I had a show Friday night and of course I just had to use the strap. I got a lot of compliments on it and passed out the website address to everyone who asked me where I got it. Thank you so much for such a beautiful strap it is above and beyond anything I was hoping for. The white and black make the perfect match to my white Les Paul Custom. I will definitely be ordering more straps for the rest of my guitars. I will be sending you pictures from our show of the strap in action.   Thank you,”

 Lonnie Mackie, Roseville, CA

“Terry, Got the strap yesterday morning. Hung it on my 335 last night. I never imagined that a strap could perform magic. Your strap does. It makes a heavy guitar float as if weightless. It's refreshing that in an era that has exceptional quality vanishing in most products, you create what you do. Don't ever stop. Thanks a million.”

Bob Erlien, Chicago, Illinois

“Got it today, and that is one fine ass strap!“

Chuck Colvin, River Ridge, LA

“Hello Terry, The strap you made for Aaron Lines was a HUGE hit. It was so beautiful and you did such a wonderful job making it. The craftsmenship was outstanding. And those letters in his name were amazing.

I have enclosed a few of the photo's I took with him and the strap. The lights just made his name pop. It looked fantastic. Thank you so much for making it for us. It is something he is going to have for a very long time.  I did get permission from Aaron to use his photo on your site.  Thanks Terry.”

Brenda McKeever

“Hi, Terry,  I received the straps yesterday -- they are nice!  They arrived in time for rehearsal, and my band mates liked them, too.  The leather on the Blackheart strap must be the softest I've felt.  Using the strap presents a problem however; I don't know whether to play my bass or pet the strap.  I'll manage somehow :-)  The Moody Blue strap is very classy.  The blue is so dark that under most light, it looks like black.  It reminds me of finest bespoke formal wear (not the stuff that can be rented) that is really midnight blue, so that it looks "blacker than black."  It's very nice.  Thanks for sending everything so fast!  Also, I appreciate you shipping the Moody Blue on my word.  I'm extremely pleased!  Roger (Sadowsky) has my main bass back at his shop in New York for some maintenance, so when I get it back I'll take a couple pics.  I'm sure I'll take you up on your 10% off offer for another strap early in the year, too.  Thanks again, and best regards,”

James Patterson, Hollywood, CA

“Dear Nikki, As you promised, the camera strap arrived today--just a couple of minutes ago, in fact--and it is everything I expected it to be.  In fact, although your website takes great pains to convey the softness of the leather that you use, you don’t go far enough; my best leather jacket, which is pretty damn nice, actually, feels like cardboard by comparison.  And if “everything I expected it to be” sounds like damning with faint praise, please be assured:  I expected one helluva nice strap, and that’s exactly what I got!”
