As you can see the strap is tied around the pegbox between the pegs.
Paul also has some piece of not slippy fabric on his knee
Hope this can help.
Good luck!

Hello everyone!
I am new to Lutes, and new to the list. Most of the time, I just
quietly sit and read and listen, but today I have a question: how
to
attach a strap to the lute? I have a new 8 course lute. It has a
strap
button on the end, but it isn't really obvious to me where the
other
end is tied. From looking at videos and pictures, it looks like
the
strap is tied off somehow on the peg box, but not near the nut.
I'm
confused. And the lute is a little more slippy to hold than I
expected.
Any advice welcomed!
About me, there isn't much to say. I just really want to play the
lute.
It's the most magical sounding stringed instrument in the world to
me,
and I was over the moon to be able to get one for myself. I have
wanted
one for years. It would be nice to meet other lutenists locally,
but I
don't know if there are any. (I live in Columbus, Ohio.) I also do
historical reenactment, so when I get brave enough to take my lute
out
to an event, I will probably meet other lutenists. But in the
meantime,
I really enjoy reading the posts on the list.
Halle Snyder
