Looks great, works great, longer than you will probably ever need.
This strap is awesome. It looks great, is very comfortable and has all the length you could ever need.
Looks:
Well, it says fender as has the cool two tone look. Too bad I use it with an SG (oops). I first tried one of these straps on a friends white Les Paul (oops again) and it did a great job and looked good, if you ignore brand etiquette. With a white SG (a pattern emerges) it looks stunning.
Length: The strap is as long as anyone could ever need. I am 186cm (6ft 1inch) tall and probably have more than half of the strap to give when adjusted to a good playing height. Granted, I am not a low slinger, but unless you are over two metres and like your guitar at your feet I can't see length ever being an issue.
Practicality and comfort:
There is a misconception that more padding means more comfort. This is nonsence, and here the strap is great. It is effectively two pieces of cloth folded over on eath other and appears to have no stretch.
More practical however is the underside material. It is some form of plastic. At first touch it feels like it would be a little slippy, causing issues yet the truth is very different. Once some weight is on it it is pretty grippy. My aforementioned SG is, as they all are, extremely top heavy. With this strap I am no longer worried about gravity related headstock damage. It really is that good.
The con:
Really the only con is that the paddles that attach to the strap lugs are a bit flexible and soft. Before I fitted strap locks the strap would come loose occasionally after sitting down with the guitar for a few minutes. Luckily this never caused any serious accidents though - but beware of this.
Verdict: unless you have issue with it saying fender (at which point I guess you wouldn't be here anymore anyway), buy it - just be careful when you have given it some slack or get some strap locks to go with it.

The strap is ok. Although it is not wide but quite comfortable. The only downside I am facing is that the strap gets loose and detached from the guitar!

classic for a reason
comfortable and durable guitar strap, offers enough length variation. I find them very comfortable, although I play strats and teles. For heavier guitars or basses it might be better to go with a wider strap.
I keep mine on the guitar at all times; for those who change straps often or take them off while transporting guitar in a bag or a case, I would recommend getting strap locks.

not special strap but totally good
i use it for my fender highway one american. i bought it 7 years ago, since then strength was good, but i think design could be better. it is comfort and install is so easy. i think the strap is representation of your guitar. importance of it is not less than guitar appearance. the strap must be the same color of guitar. it was. both of them was black. i think text on strap could be in leather brown color.

Good Value
This is very nice value strap that is very comfortable to wear even for long periods. I have a number of these and for the price they can't be beat.

Simple and comfortable
I bought this guitar strap after purchasing my guitar. I wanted to buy a nice comfortable one that wouldn't dig into my shoulder have long periods of playing. My only complaint however is that, the ends of the strap where they attach to the guitar became quite worn out and didn't secure very well. I'd recommend that if you buy this strap, to also purchase a set of strap locks.
