You could try straplocks, but the ones I've seen are big, ugly, and expensive. What I have found (though I haven't tried them yet) came from Home Depot furniture and cabinet fittings (I forget the UK equivalent to HD, but it isn't hard to find). What I found there was a packet of 4 connecting bolts in antique brass finish (SKU# 53964, House-Mates Hardware for Crown Bolt llc, made in China - surprise, surprise ) for about $9.00. You screw the bolt into one piece of the furniture, and are supposed to hook on a matching fitting on the other piece (if you've ever put IKEA furniture together, you'l know what I'm talking about). These are good and big and hefty and should provide a solid lock for the buttonhole on a guitar strap.
George Leverett at altarwind.com also sells 'real' brass strap buttons for $8.00 a pair. Do let us know what solution you come up with (I still have visions of you leading the Tattoo) David On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 7:16 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > What about guitar strap locks?
