ambient Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Anyone tried these ? [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/p/916931/jim-dunlop-lok-straplok-ergo-lok-strap-pair/"]http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/p/916931/jim-dunlop-lok-straplok-ergo-lok-strap-pair/[/url] I don't personally like either the Schaller or normal Dunlop strap locks, so these [i]look[/i] like a good alternative. I've got Schallers fitted to my basses at the moment, would these work with the Schaller strap pin ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coilte Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I have tried those. They are OK, but I always had trouble opening and closing them. They are cheap enough to try out for yourself. I use Grolsch beer bottle gaskets. You could treat yourself to a few bottles of beer and use the gasket off them, or buy the gaskets seperately. They work a treat for me.

brensabre79 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Have you tried [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FENDER-F-LOGO-CHROME-GUITAR-BASS-STRAP-LOCKS-FELTS-STRAPLOCKS-099-0818-300-/230848421006?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item35bfa35c8e"]these[/url]? I have them on my basses and much prefer them to the Schaller / Dunlop ones, especially the plastic rotating disc kind that either snap or come undone.

They just feel like they're gonna come undone unless i check them every 20 seconds (And normally do come undone). Much prefer the Dunlops on my Precision. As for the Ernie Ball Ergo ones, i had a few sets of some cheaper copies of these and except the occasionaly coming undone, i didn't have too many problems with them at all.
