Asking Alexandria joins the Red Monkey family!
When we got the call to work with Asking Alexandria we were stoked. They were tired of wearing shitty straps and were ready to take things to the "Next Level". They knew Red Monkey was the spot so they made the call. They wanted a nice mix of everything. A few custom straps and a few from our current collection was all that was needed to ramp up their image.
Cameron Liddell (@cameronliddell) was really interested in Snake Skin guitar strap with the AA (@AAofficial) logo. Now we have used snake before but we really don't like working with exotic leathers so we did a little homework and found this faux-snake leather that looks and feels amazingly like snake. Best part about it: It's NOT snake.
This is true Rock Star status. He gave us a shout out on Instagram!
A nice live shot of the strap in action......

Sam Bettley(@samuelbettley) plays bass for Asking Alexandria (or should we say murders the bass for AA. This is another killer dude and true rockstar that we are happy to have as part of the Red Monkey (@redmonkeyla) family. He likes to keep things a little more low-key and choose from our current collection of Rocker Straps.
He also gave us a shoutout on his Instagram! What a gentleman.
Here he can be seen levitating with his new Red Monkey strap at Mayhem Festival #mayhemFest

Ben Bruce (@benjaminbruce) put in a request for a Union Jack themed guitar strap. He wanted something a bit tattered and worn looking. This one was a bit of stumper for us but we finally got it handled and it turned out great! Unfortunately, it's a bit too wide for Ben's liking so we'll do some modifying when they back from tour. For now, he's rockin' the Ammo strap below.
