G & Co. - The Allman Leather Strap
Handmade in Sao Paulo, Brazil
Description from G & Co.
It took five years for Duane Allman to transform from a teenager making a psychedelic sound to one of the best slide guitarists of all time. He mastered the slide like no other before him, applying it to the blues and making it melodic and free of form. In addition to being a respected session musician, he is known for his slide and creativity in improvisation. Some consider it to be the origin of the blues / rock slide.
Howard Duane Allman was born in 1946 in Nashville. He and his brother Gregg founded the group The Allman Brothers Band. He became the leading architect of southern American rock. With The Allman Brothers, Duane, aka Skydog, played his deep love for this style - especially black bluesmen - to a rock audience. And with Dickey Betts, Allman managed to popularize the melodic use of two guitar harmonies. His great companion was a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Jr. He died in an accident with his Harley-Davidson Sportster shortly after the launch and initial success of At Fillmore East and a few weeks before turning 25
