DSL SX Stud 2.5" Leather Guitar Strap - X-Pattern Rivets (SX25-15-1)

The DSL SX Stud series (SX25-15-1) is designed for the player who wants a custom, geometric aesthetic with professional-grade durability. Featuring a distinctive X-pattern of securely mounted rivet studs, this strap is handmade in Australia from the finest hand-sourced leathers. It offers a unique alternative to traditional pyramid studs, providing a rugged, industrial look that is built to withstand the rigors of heavy touring.

Angkor Music Quality Assurance

Rivet-style straps can often be "guitar killers" if the hardware is exposed on the underside. At Angkor Music, we exclusively recommend the DSL SX series because of its dual-layer "Hidden Hardware" construction. The rivet studs are mounted to the top leather, while an extra-soft full-grain garment leather backing completely seals the mounting points. This guarantees that no metal ever touches your instrument’s finish or snags your clothing.

Precision Rivet Craftsmanship

Every SX25-15-1 is a result of meticulous hand-assembly, ensuring that the complex X-pattern remains perfectly aligned and durable.

  • Hand-Fitted Rivet Studs: Each stud is specially sourced for color consistency and hand-pressed for perfect spacing. To ensure a lifetime of use, the hardware is treated with a thin, ultra-hard clear lacquer to resist rust, discolouration, and scratching.
  • Medium-Weight Leather Top: The top layer is crafted from tough yet supple leather that provides the structural integrity needed to support heavy electric guitars and basses without stretching.
  • Full-Grain Garment Backing: The underside features premium full-grain leather, providing an extra soft, "broken-in" feel from the very first gig.

Engineered for Performance

The SX25-15-1 combines its aggressive industrial aesthetic with the high-end ergonomics DSL is known for.

  • X-Pattern Design: The unique rivet arrangement provides a visual depth that stands out under stage lights, perfect for Metal, Rock, and Industrial genres.
  • Interweave Tail Adjustment: Features the classic, heavy-duty interweave tail for secure length adjustment from 100cm to 148cm.
  • Handmade in Australia: Proudly designed and built locally using the highest quality Australian leather and components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the rivets hollow or solid?
DSL uses specially sourced rivet studs that are securely mounted through the top leather. They provide a solid, industrial aesthetic without adding excessive weight to the strap.

Will the lacquer on the studs peel off?
No. DSL uses an industrial-grade "ultra-hard" clear lacquer that is designed to bond with the metal. It is highly resistant to the friction of playing and the moisture from sweat.

Is the backing slippery on the shoulder?
The full-grain garment leather backing provides a "natural grip." It is stable enough to prevent unwanted sliding (neck dive) while still allowing you to reposition the guitar easily when needed.
