Has no one ever used the big pink rubber things that are on the large Grolsch bottles as strap holders?

You could probably use any rubber washer as long as the ID isn't too big.

I do the same every time I play--most of my guitars are fine that way--but I still check.



I've heard of guys using washers and quarters they've drilled holes in and the they get attached directly to the guitar so the strap is on the guitar all the time.

You gotta love the Irish mind. There are solutions for everything lying about, right in front of you.

I've got a set of the Dunlop ones on one of my guitars and they definitely do the job... but not as nice as schaller ones.

That's what I use and now I won't use anything else. I bought a set of the dunlops and didn't like how far the strap was from the body so I started useing the rubber washers and haven't looked back.

Those cheesy Dunlop sliding plastic things are positively great for when you do not have a set of real Straplocks on your guitar and strap.
