Custom Guitar Strap To Adorn A Megath Inspired Flying V Guitar

As the orders roll in daily, we are constantly shipping merch to countries, locales and folks far and wide. One of the coolest honors that we ever receive is when we get the chance to do a custom order in which someone wants something very specific. 

On this particular strap we got an email through our Etsy store and Scotty was asking to have one of our black straps done up with antique brass hardware. We quickly emailed back to let him know that it could indeed be done and we would just have to order the right pieces for him. Really stoked to see the type of guitar he was putting it on, along with all the custom airbrush work. Honored to say the least.

Metal Evolution - VH1 Documentary Series

Finally, a great show about Heavy Metal called Metal Evolution and the storied history about where it really came from. VH1, you are alright in our books now and we cannot wait for the Thrash Metal show on December 31st. Our only gripe is that with the series listing, nothing is covered when it comes to Death or Black Metal? C'mon folks, this is a huge area to mine or maybe the suits over at Viacom were a bit nervous about talking to church burners and legions of the damned.

About Metal Evolution:

Metal Evolution presents 11 episodes based on the much-debated Metal History "family tree" originally shown in Headbanger's Journey. This 24 sub-genre genealogical chart reveals the vast complex progeny of heavy metal--from Early Metal and Shock Rock to Thrash, from Progressive Metal to Grunge and Nu Metal. Using the chart as his road map, our host, metalhead turned anthropologist Sam Dunn, will crisscross the globe in search of the very essence of Metal, from bars and back alleys to the biggest open air festivals.
