Dunlop Straplok System

Yes, it happened. My most expensive guitar almost hit the tile floor in my studio due to loose strap button holes. No more .... My Dunlop strap locks will give me peace of mind for years to come! Thank you StewMac for carrying these. It was really convenient for me to tack these on to my order. I probably would not have taken the trouble to order them otherwise.

Put one of these in my fender guitar made in mexico. Awesome quality like everything that's made by dunlop. I used to install the Grover Quick-release Strap Locks, that like the dunlops, are very good, but I found more practical. i like the ease of use of the dunlop straplocks.

I have these on all my electric guitars. Being able to use straps without the locks also comes in handy.

I acquired two pair of these straploks recently and I i was really surprised with their quality and funcionality. I had never installed sraploks before and staring them for a few minutes, I alredy figured out how to do it. The product works perfectly well and are very easy to use and install.

I use the black and the chrome finish ones. The screws are a bit larger than stock, so you have to make sure you drill an appropriately sized hole...they sould be permanent...if there is a strap button that you find yourself either screwing in again and again, or replacing...then that aint no good! I have had the same exact locks on some of my guitars for more than 10 years! No rust, no chipping, no damage at all. These aint fancy, they're just tough little buttons that hold on and don't let go. Some of the strap pins have even been in the same strap for several years with none of the rattling issues mentioned previously. Perhaps the leather tabs of the strap were not thick enough to press against that large circular washer. I'd reccomend buying a nice, hefty, high quality strap, drilling a correct sized hole, make sure the little lock washer goes, 'click' and you'll be solid for years.

I installed the Dunlop Straplok System on a Les Paul a few years ago. The screws were a little longer than the stock items. After removing the original hardware, the holes should be drilled a bit deeper rather than forcing the Dunlop screws into solid material. Don't overdo it! A small bit that slides comfortably into the existing holes and modeler's pin vise are the right tools for this job.

I love these things. I think the Schaller's are just as good but I prefer the mechanics of the Dunlop. Dropping your guitar sucks. Dunlop Straploks stop the drop.

Just installed these on a recently acquired guitar - I wouldn't think of taking it on stage without them. They NEVER release unintentionally, are fully reliable, simple to use and bulletproof. The gold-standard for strap locks.

...knowing my guitar isn't going to separate from the strap while moving around and fall to the floor. Easy to install and easy to use.

This is the first time i tried straploks and i never thought i would. I love 'em! install was simple and straight forward after i found instructions on the web!
