Watch closely and put in your maximum bid about five minutes to go. |

| I am not sure how much time is left but this would sell better if there is an ovation symbol on it and you could show it in a photo? strap is not one I would want to wear but it would look nice hanging on the wall with the Ovations if the symbol was displayed? Just a thought
Good Luck it has some good bids on it now.

Randy, it doesn't have "Ovation" on it but it has the motiff of the Ovation round hole guitar along it's length...I had a white leather one for over twenty years before I noticed the design on the strap was like the soundhole ring. :rolleyes:
Smart...

| Is the motif shown in the photo's ? I figured there was something on the guitar strap but I did not see anything but the funky pattern in the shots? A photo of this would draw a few more Ovation collectors I'll bet?
I am having mine made now although they will not be official Ovation straps they will be what I use on mine.

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada | Randy, if you look carefully at the pattern on the strap you will see that it is the same leaf pattern that is on the sound hole surround of most of the round hole "O"s for 1968 to fairly recently...I don't feel so bad now!
