Members irishstu Posted May 4, 2009 Members Share Posted May 4, 2009 Hi all, Do any of you have any recommendations for strap-locking options for an acoustic with an under-saddle Fishman-type pickup, with one of those jacks that is also the strap button? To be more specific, it's a Martin Thinline 332, like this: Thanks, Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members irishstu Posted May 4, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 4, 2009 Anyone? I was intending to go with one of these: http://www.sheehans.com/acoustic-guitars/care-maintenance/pcode=ls ... but I see they specifically mention "wont fit endpin jack sockets on electro-acoustics" So at the moment it looks like my best option might be this: Any other ideas?

Members halmot Posted May 4, 2009 Members Share Posted May 4, 2009 Everybody wants a strap lock to secure the strap. I want one like the Schallers on my electric that provide for quick-release. I guess the only way I'll ever have that is to separate the jack from the endpin/strap lug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members melandy Posted May 4, 2009 Members Share Posted May 4, 2009 Tapastring's StrapKeeper. Works a treat. -A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members daklander Posted May 4, 2009 Members Share Posted May 4, 2009 Your best options at this time are Melandy's StrapKeeper, a second button or a C clip. That StrapKeeper damn sure looks interesting though. I'll have to have a gander at the local guitar shop to see if they carry them. However, the premise is the same as using a C clip with the only differences the extra bit of leather and the C clip material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sangemon Posted May 5, 2009 Members Share Posted May 5, 2009 I sat there and watched as John Hall dropped his Martin OM on it's head while onstage at the Pete Seeger birthday concert last night. It was at the end when everyone was onstage for the finale. The were enjoying the applause at the end when it happened. He had the guitar hanging upside down behind his back and the endpin let go. I could hear the crunch in Section 106. Wasn't pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Idunno Posted January 7, 2017 Members Share Posted January 7, 2017 I just screwed a carabiner using an electrical cable clamp to my tail block. I can repel with my guitar, or even sky dive using a wireless system (of course) and sometimes when SCUBA diving I can using my all carbon fiber git as a flag buoy when drift diving. http://demandware.edgesuite.net/sits_pod21/dw/image/v2/AAKN_PRD/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-bdel/default/dwaad1abaf/products/carabiners_draws/S16/210275_RockLock_Screwgate_Carabiner_web.jpg?sw=472 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
