D'Addario PWS Polypropylene Guitar Strap Series
The PWS Series (PWS100 through PWS111) represents the essential foundation of D'Addario's strap lineup. Known for their extreme durability and minimalist design, these polypropylene straps are engineered to provide maximum performance for players who value functionality and longevity.
The Professional Standard
The PWS series is the "workhorse" of the guitar world. Whether you are using the classic Black (PWS100) or a vibrant color like Silver (PWS105), these straps are built to withstand the rigors of heavy touring and daily practice.
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Polypropylene Webbing: Constructed from high-tensile strength polypropylene, the webbing is designed to be much stronger than standard nylon. It is resistant to stretching, fraying, and moisture.
- Secure Leather Ends: Each strap features thick, reinforced leather ends that provide a tight, secure fit on standard strap buttons, ensuring your instrument remains safe during movement.
- Color Permanence: Unlike cheaper alternatives, the PWS series uses a specialized dyeing process that ensures colors remain vibrant and do not bleed onto your clothing or instrument finish.
- Unrivaled Value: Provides a professional-grade connection to your instrument at an entry-level price point.

Why Choose the PWS Series?
For many guitarists, the PWS strap is the first—and often only—strap they will ever need. It is favored for its "slick" feel, which allows the guitar to move freely across the shoulder, making it ideal for performers who shift positions frequently during a set. It is lightweight, folds easily into any gig bag pocket, and is built to last a lifetime.
