Figured ES-335 in Ice Tea - What color strap?

[Daniel Desmarais]

I'm looking at a figured ES-335 in Ice Tea. I want to use a baseball glove leather guitar strap from Perri. What color would go well with that finish?

 

[soulman969]

The color you like best. Me? I'd stick with black or brown.

Black goes with everything. But I don’t really want that. And brown leather guitar straps are classic. I’m just wondering if maybe tan might look better with the ice tea finish.

 

[Davis Sharp]

Tan or reddish-brown.

Something subtle. Like neon pink with a silver lightning bolt. C'mon, you don't wanna be like everyone else do ya?

I'm already not by playing a semi-hollow.

If you think it does then it does.

I'm red-green color blind, so I have a different outlook on color in general. I still see colors, just not as many as most people.

My only advice would be to avoid colors lighter than the guitar, because that would draw attention away.

Thanks for the tip

Man, I agonize over “Maybe I should get a different guitar...” and then I see a 335 and I fall in love all over again.

Black...

I ordered tan. With Schaller locking strap pegs

I have the Gibson one.

I put Schaller strap locks and a wide, padded tan strap on it.
