I have like five of those Ernie Ball straps. I keep one on a guitar at all times. Some of my guitars are fitted with DiMarzio ClipLocks.

That's what I have, but in black because i'm boring. I'd love some purple ones though as that's my favourite colour.

Am I too old to have a favourite colour?

Fender Badtz Maru strap with a pin that says "MOO" on it. Super long for whatever length I want, and solid ends.

This is the one I use most often. Ernie Ball!

I should get those Badtz Maru straps for my Badtz Maru bass, to go along with the Hello Kitty strap for the Hello Kitty guitar.

I've pretty much just used plain black ernie ball straps for the past couple years. They're comfortable and they seem to last forever!

Woah, you guys have some great vintage straps! I got an interesting looking mosaic-esque strap with the Teisco, but it's like the hardest/roughest strap ever so I use this instead:

So soft, so hempy, so pretty. 8)

These are all I put on my guitars too, they would be naked without them. Compliments most fender colors perfectly.

It's a Planet Waves strap:

I previously had a basic Levy cotton strap that was ok as long as it wasn't on a heavier guitar. Used it with the Duo Sonic.

I used to have one of those. The locking mechanism wasn't strong enough for my AVRI Jazzmaster. It would always loosen up and my guitar's strap pins would fall out. Luckily my Jazzy never hit the ground as a result but it caused me many a scare. One of these may work well on something lighter weight but I would never trust them for a heavy guitar.
