Re: Collings MT2 tone guard ?
If Chris Thile and countless other 1924 Loar owners have guards on, I would feel OK about it... Is it brand new? Maybe wait a few extra months before placing it?
I really prefer straps looped under the fretboard extension, but I suppose you could have a button installed. I don't like the headstock strap situation... It impedes my hands, but that's just me, no right or wrong way!
There's plenty of strap wear on F styles and no one bats an eye... It's the same with straps on an A under the fretboard. If it rubs a little, it rubs. To me, they sit much better than using a button...buttons angle out for some reason.
