File Under: Crazy long-shot but never hurts to ask...
Couch did a limited run of silver and orange guitar straps with MoAM? "Test Subject" graphics back in 2010. These were only available at shows, and came and went before I had a chance to get one. If you have one you'd be willing to part with, please let me know. Thanks!

Careful buying one of those straps. I bought one, but no guitar was worthy of it. So I had to buy a MoAM Hallmark to go with it!
Good luck with your search. You might want to try the "fans... or astro-fans" facebook group to see if any of them have one to sell.
Cheers!

Haha, yeah, that signature model looks super cool! I've found some clips of Star Crunch playing one and it sounds the business as well.
Thanks for the tip on checking the FB group... I'm sure I'd be able to hear the laughter echoing across the internet if I asked over there.
Luckily Couch still makes the basic silver and orange seatbelt straps, so if all else fails I guess that'd be an option.
Curious what gauge strings you are running on your Hallmark MoAM?

GHS Boomer 11-52. They're the same that STARCRUNCH uses

Yes. I admit it. I have a bit of a man-crush on STARCRUNCH. He's my guitar hero, after all.
Is it Man-Crush... or Astro-Man-Crush?
But back to the topic at hand: Murph, the fans or astrofans group on Facebook has some crazy nerdy MoAM collectors in their midst. Nobody would laugh at you asking if anyone has a strap to sell. One of those Astro-nerds probably has a box of them in their collection.
