JIM DUNLOP Acoustic Guitar Bridge Pins (48150002002)

Wanted a shorter shaft because the original ones stick out more,these will work perfectly

I have these on all my guitars and straps. I haven't once had one come off when I didn't want it to. Makes swapping out guitars or straps super quick and convenient. Sure, there are better ones out there, but for the price, I don't think these can be beat.

These are on every guitar I own

Here's what strap locks are supposed to do: securely attach your strap to your guitar. These do that much better than Schallers and the Fender rip-offs of Schaller.I used the Schallers many years ago. They look great, but the problem is they screw onto the strap with a nut. I am very good with maintenance, check for loose parts, etc., but at one gig with my super heavy American deluxe 5 string jazz bass, the nut worked its way off the strap, and I dropped it. It was with a heavy leather strap, and I did tighten it down with pliers upon installation and I'm sure I kept it maintained. Absolutely ridiculous and inexcusable. Never again. Unless you want to inspect and retighten your strap locks at every single rehearsal and gig, forget about Schallers. They're a good company and they make great tuners, I don't fault the materials, it's simply that threaded things can work their way loose, a fatal design flaw for this type of device. Come on, its only purpose is to not allow something to come off of something else.The Dunlop strap locks fit on with a locking ring. It is impossible to remove these from the strap by accident. If you're having trouble getting the lockrings on, I have a YouTube video posted to my channel, NickWeissMusic, just search for Dunlop strap lock installation. It's kind of tough at first but with experience, it's very easy. The package instructions are correct but not very helpful.I have these on more than 10 instruments, and have never had even close to a failure in well over a decade. The package recommends periodically lubricating the mechanism inside the lock, but I have never done so, in my experience lubricants usually gunk things up more than they help for things like this. I've never had so much as a grind or squeak from the button or ball bearings in these strap locks, if I did, I'd probably just replace it. I do give the locks a little tug when I put them on to make sure they're engaged, other than that, you can forget about them, which is the way it should be.The only possible downside is that these strap locks keep the strap a little further from the instrument then using no strap locks or the Schallers do, to which I say, who cares. Well, I guess a lot of people care about that, since I see it in a lot of reviews. If using no strap lock or a poorly designed one is worth it to you, just so you can have your strap a quarter inch closer to your guitar, so be it. I have seen Ernie Ball strap locks that seem to be a little lower profile, I think they use lock rings too. Maybe try those, but I'm sticking with the flawless track record of the Dunlops.

The only one for me.

I like being able to securely attach/remove the guitar straps. Worth the money. All my guitars and straps are fitted with "Straploks". Recommend.

I keep a set of these on all of my guitars. Some guitars will need the screw holes enlarged for installation, but once that is done they are sturdy and easy to use

The media could not be loaded. Sorry about long review but its worth the read!! I have bought DUNLOP Strap locks for every guitar I own. I have purchased all 3 colors (Chrome, Brass, Black etc) you don't even worry about the model number or color as long as it is a DUNLOP Strap Lock system your straps are INTERCHANGEABLE between your guitars and straps no matter what you decide to buy!! Not going to lie on a newer strap it's a little harder to install due to tightness of the new strap but it's 100% worth it!I have 19 guitars and 3 basses and all my guitars I care the most about (either expensive, sentimental or modded) has the Dunlop Strap Locks. The other ones I bought the budget rubber style for the straps. Those work fine as well but I would not recommend taking them on and off. Once you put the guitar Strap on and use the rubber ones leave it on or it will wear out when it's removed and eventually you will need to order more or a new strap.Dunlop strap locks you don't have that issue. The only reason why I don't just buy the section that screws onto the guitar and just use 1 or 2 straps to interchange between my guitars is due to the price. It's not much more money wise to get the whole set so mine as well get the set.I hope this helps someone out there one the fence about Strap locks. I honestly would only buy Dunlop brand then the other brands out there because of them being interchangeable!!! Protect your guitars and save your straps from wear put buy this brand.
