Planet Waves originated as a small guitar strap company based on Long Island, New York, and became a dedicated accessories brand after it was acquired by string manufacturer D'Addario in 1998. Under D'Addario, the Planet Waves name expanded well beyond straps into a full catalog of fretted-instrument accessories, with manufacturing and distribution handled through D'Addario's Farmingdale operations.
The brand is known for products like the Pro-Winder (a combination peg winder and string cutter co-designed with Ned Steinberger), Auto-Trim locking tuning machines, Cinch-Fit strap locking systems, Humidipak two-way humidification packs, American Stage and Custom Series instrument cables, NS Capos developed with Ned Steinberger, and a broad line of leather and woven guitar straps. Planet Waves products are widely stocked through retailers such as Guitar Center, Sweetwater, StewMac, and Reverb.
The Planet Waves name was later consolidated under the D'Addario Accessories banner, so many products that originally carried Planet Waves branding are now sold as D'Addario Accessories while remaining functionally the same items.
Planet Waves has 69 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Straps & Strap Locks, Instrument Cables, and Picks & Pick Holders. Their gear is featured by 48 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Folk, World, & Country, and Metal. Notable users include Joe Satriani, Batuhan Mutlugil, and Devin Townsend.
