BP: "I am very proud of many of the creations at ebmm but none more than the Bongo. Every day the cult grows and it makes it all worthwhile."
There's no "other" choice. I don't even know what you call them, but I've used them for years. Just a little leather strap with a regular button on it and another leather piece with a button hole in it to lock the strap. You remove the stock strap button and replace it with this thing. Simple, low tech, cheap, fool proof and reccomended by Carl Perkins!
Always used Dunlops, and never see that changin.

I voted for Schallers. I've never used the Dunlops. Bought the Schallers first, they worked, didn't see a reason to try anything else.
Starting to think about returning to bass playing in the very near future.

Started out with Schallers in 1985 when I got them as a gift from guitar player buddy who watched in horror as my bass fell from my strap during the gig. "Here, I think you need these," he said. Been using them on all my basses ever since.
By the way, I hate the sound a plugged-in bass makes when it crashes to the floor.

I voted Schaller since that is all I have ever used. They work good nuff.
