I'm not knocking any of the other methods, I just prefer the simplicity of the Grolsch type and I'm a cheap bastard (mostly out of necessity).
I think most of us agree we see the need for something more secure than just the strap on the button.
I have encountered Gibson style buttons that only had a small grooved area.
Not groovy baby.
This makes it hard for the washer to get a good grab around the knob end of the button.

Got mine today. I might be sold on these. Will be playing it out on Monday.

Used about 2 hours today. For $12 it’s hard to beat.

Does it stay locked pretty good Session?

Yes so far Truss_rod . I have had it a couple of months now with no problems. I would recommend purchasing one.

FYI. I have extra locks (for the strap) in chrome, black and gold if anyone needs them for their alternate strap. Since I have a bunch (not sure how many I can spare exactly) and the offer is open to every regular member, and I have no idea what I am getting myself into, I will ask for actual shipping cost.
First come first serve. Chili, IOU a set since I learned you cannot ship them in a plain envelope and they got lost!

Nice! That would be great for my Son's little guitar.

this fella makes and sells an old school type of strap lock.
Not sure how it attaches to strap.
Well-Hung StrapMaster Old School leather Strap Locks
He custom makes all his straps and folks speak very highly of them, and him.
I really like his straps but its just too pricey for me.

First of all, I think I get extra points for resurrecting a four-year old thread!
But, I recently just started using these - Grover GP800 Strap Locks.
I only began using them because my White Falcon came with a gold set of these. I've come to like them quite a bit.
Since then, I have put a nickel set on my Strat and a black set on my Jackson. I may get more of the nickel sets for my other guitars.
They have been very reliable on my guitars.
