MIDNIGHT SPECIAL COLLECTION

About

Midnight Special — Black Leather Guitar Straps The Midnight Special Collection takes some of Red Monkey Designs' best-known guitar strap styles and strips them down to a darker, more understated look: smooth black leather, black hardware and an all-black finish built for the stage. Hand-built in Los Angeles, these black leather guitar straps are designed for players who want Red Monkey's substantial leather construction without bright metal hardware or contrasting details. The result is a clean, aggressive black-on-black aesthetic that works across rock, metal, alternative, country and beyond. What Makes the Midnight Special Different? Midnight Special straps are not simply standard Red Monkey designs made in black. The collection is defined by its monochromatic treatment, pairing smooth black leather with black hardware for a cohesive, low-profile finish. That gives each design a different character. Details that might normally stand out through polished silver, brass or antique hardware become more subtle, allowing the shape, leatherwork and overall silhouette of the strap to take the lead. All-Black Guitar Straps Built for the Stage An all-black guitar strap can disappear into a dark stage setup or become part of a deliberately monochromatic look. For players using black guitars, dark finishes or blacked-out hardware, the Midnight Special Collection creates a more unified visual profile without sacrificing the feel of a substantial leather strap. The collection includes Midnight Special versions of several established Red Monkey designs, including the Classic, Slasher, Maiden, Motor City, Rock A Rolla, Jerry and Berzerker II, giving players multiple widths and styles within the same black-on-black design language. Hand-Built Black Leather Guitar Straps from Los Angeles Red Monkey Designs has been building leather guitar straps in Los Angeles for over 30 years. The Midnight Special Collection applies that same stage-focused approach to a darker visual direction, c
