Since the company makes real guitar straps, and since holding up a fake guitar relies on the same principles as holding up a real one, there's probably no reason you couldn't use one of these for the real thing, so you can look like a huge nerd onstage*. And then you'd at least be getting your $32.95 out of it. If it's even possible to get $33 worth of value from a guitar strap.
But quibbling over the price does little to obscure the simple fact that these look cool, and we Wii owners, who are extra-sensitive about controller straps, can appreciate them.
*The Couch website warns that the end tabs are not as heavy-duty as those designed for real guitars, and "may not last as long."

Fake straps? Hmmm... I like wii. Etc. But I got some real guitar straps http://www.italiastraps.com/
to work as my brothers and I play real guitar too. It would be kinda lame to have a strap that you can only fit on a fake guitar...
