Re: Strap locks.
I recently put straplocks on my solidbody baritone, and I'm thrilled. I primarily did this to keep the strap from coming of the pins, but the best thing about it: It's breeze to put the strap on and off! This way, I can roll the thick and padded leather strap and store it separately in the gigbag for transport. Makes packing up so much easier...
However, on all my other isntruments with more flexible straps I don't see why I should invest that much money... As long as the strap stays on the pins I'm fine, and otherwise I'd also use rubber washers
I also see no reason why they shouldn't work on acoustics.
