Strange guitar strap??? Which one is it???

[Junior]

I've seen a lot of players, esspecially EBMM players with a strap that comes in three pieces... two little pieces that stay on the strap screw and the big part that comes off... and you just put 'em together with that famous clip or whatever it's called in English...

Can anyone tell me which one are those?

help...

These are called strap-locks. Prevents your guitar from falling off the strap. Very good thing, but requires a slight modification to the guitar.

Those look like DiMarzios

ahaa are those the ones where you have to drill a hole instead of the strap screw?

 

[Junior]

Ha... those are Dimarzio's thanks. There has to be a hole in the guitar, and there's a hole on the strap, and then you buy the EBMM straplock (the screw), right?

they come with the strap, the two little pieces, screws and a plastic washer. The little strap parts have a metal washer attached to them and you take out the strap buttons and screw those two little pieces where the button was.

I've got the Gotoh set where I don't have to make any modifications, but those are definitely Dimarzio clip lock traps. I'd recommend them if you play standing up a lot.

Yup.. definitely Dimarzio ClipLock strap. It says Dimarzio right on the strap in the first pic.

I'm a Schaller Strap lock man myself. Plus they fit on EBMM guitars without any modifications!

These Dimarzio Cliplock Straps were the strap of shred cognoscenti during the eighties and nineties... Vai uses them, Paul Gilbert used them, Reb Beach had some, etc. etc. ... I used them for a while, but I never liked the extra length of strap and the plastic buckle piece slapping around the guitar in the case, and I found the nylon web straps were slipperier than a good leather strap, so I switched to leathers with Schaller strap locks...
