Title: 20 bucks expiring at musicians friend
Post by: thebigz on April 25, 2013, 01:29:57 PM

I have 20 bucks at musicians friend that expires in a week.  I have no immediate needs for gear - what would you spend it on?

Just spent some time looking around on the site, I'm thinking I may go with this strap

Anyone have any experience with it?  reviews are good

Snazzy looking strap. That would be a great way to use your 20 bucks.

Agreed and since I only have one strap for my two Taylors, I'm excited for it to come.

Thanks to musicians friend.  They just sent me an email title "(name), Is this goodbye" that had a code for 20 bucks.  Everything went totally smooth.  i'd suggest everyone check their email for an email like this.  Grab a strap or some elixirs or something.

I'd throw in another $10 or $15 and get a gig bag.

Did you consider one of the Taylor Guitar straps? One of them is a suede strap (another is cotton). The Byzantine strap is considerably more, but with your coupon, it would be a good value. (Yes, I believe you've already made your choice and placed your order. ::)) Here is a link with the Taylor accessories that MF carries:
