Hell my straps are so torn and tattered from use that the damn strplocks i used needed to have a bigger spacer because the leather was stretched big time, Needless to say i threw that strap in the box and its still sittin. Trevor : unscrew the button from the guitar, place strap through smaller opening on button, and screw back on to guitar, repeat process for other button, alternativly you could try making the hole bigger on the strap. : Anybody else have these kind of problems??? im always here to help.
