Metallica's Kirk Hammett knows a thing or three about guitars. The guitarist, who has the distinction of never having had a guitar fall off of his person during a performance, is now selling leather guitar straps on his website, which you can view here.

The straps are constructed of high-end, quality leather. A post on the site from Hammett reads as follows: "The quality of workmanship, the comfort and the materials used as elements I know my fellow players will appreciate." The legendary guitarist said he finds a "great need for these" and if anyone would know about quality straps, Mr. Hammett would!
