Lady Gaga and her creative team partnered with Red Monkey to design and build custom guitar straps specifically for the opening night of her Las Vegas residency. These were not off-the-shelf pieces—each strap was custom-built in Los Angeles using specialty Italian leathers and premium lining materials to meet the demands of a high-production, world-class stage show.

The strap that most closely represents what was built for Gaga is our 1 3/4" Classic “Midnight Special.” This model reflects the same sleek profile, refined finish, and elevated material selection used in her custom pieces—balancing stage-ready durability with a polished, fashion-forward aesthetic.

On stage, these straps were designed to integrate seamlessly into a fast-paced performance environment—supporting multiple guitar changes, choreography, and long set durations, all while maintaining a clean, elevated look that complements Gaga’s visual direction.

This collaboration highlights Red Monkey’s ability to operate at the highest level—delivering fully custom, performance-driven gear for one of the most demanding live productions in the world. Not a replica, not a placement—purpose-built gear for a specific moment on one of the biggest stages in entertainment.
