Fender Strap Blocks Guitar Strap Lock Retainer, No Tools, 4-Pack

These things are great, doesn't take a lot of effort to put on in my opinion but they are quite strong. My guitar strap is now much more secure than it was and should last longer too. The best part about them is, no modifying of your guitar or strap is required! Totally recommended, especially if you have an expensive strap and want it to last longer, or, want to improve the security of your strap without any real effort. Every guitar with standard strap buttons should have these. I'd have prefered two pairs of black rather than black and red though, not sure why Fender decided to do that. Fitted fine over standard electric guitar buttons and also a through-jack style button on my daughters electro-acoustic. Also fitted onto oversized Jackson strap buttons, which takes a bit more effort to get on and off, but I suppose that just makes them more secure.

My guitar start kept falling off at all the wrong moments and started becoming afustration, I did not want to replace the strap as it still has a lot of wear left, these have recommended the issue completely they fit nice and tight which secure the strap nicely in place it takes a little effort to push them on but is simple enough anyone can do it and taking them off is a breeze , they feel a good quality made of strong rubber-like material so I'm expecting them to last for a while so far they have withstood a lot of punishment,really happy definitely recommend

These strap blocks from Fender are a great cheap option to add security to your guitar strap. You get 2 sets of blocks i the pack, one red and one black. I put one set on my Squire Stratocaster over an Earnie Ball guitar strap. They are a little tough to initially get on and the guitar strap button has just enough height to accommodate both the strap and the block but this all adds to the security and the feeling of security. Once they are in, it is quite difficult to spin the end of your strap around on the button. I guess this can be seen as both a positive and a negative. The blocks themselves feel like they are made of a very high quality and durable material I would still say normal strap locks will be stronger if you want to spend the extra money, but these blocks do a great job and mean you can switch guitar straps easier if you wish to do so, unlike strap locks.

A new twist on an old trick and much cheaper than the four bottles of Grolsch that you would have had to buy without this (but without the beer however...). It does the job, I use them on my basses and where road-worn straps previously had a tendancy to slip, they are now solid and secure. If like me you are bit of a purist and don't like taking a scredriver to your vintage guitars in order to fit strap-locks this is the answer.

I was a bit doubtful that these would really do the job.. But they do. I used my first pack on a variety of straps: Thin woven types with a thin leather end, thin but stiff all leather straps and very thick all leather straps. They are slightly more difficult to fit on the thicker straps but still easy. Now, the money saving bit, I only ever have a problem with the 'Bridge' end strap button so one pack did four guitars for me. Just ordered another pack as I write this! They may of course fail with age getting brittle or something, but who cares I will just buy some more in 10 years time!

IN A NUTSHELL: Yes, get them. They're a simple, unobtrusive and very cost-effective way of stopping your strap parting company. In fact, unless you're regularly thrashing around on stage with a guitar that cost a four-figure sum, you probably won't ever need any other strap locking device. IN DETAIL: Strap Locks are an important item for a guitarist/bassist to consider (essential in the case of those that actively gig), yet the choice is far from clear. Several options exist for mechanisms that replace the instrument's standard strap button, but consensus on which is the most effective and worth investing in does not. For some time now, some players have spoken of the little rubber washers found on large Grolsch bottles as a cheap-but-effective alternative. Apparently Fender knew of it, too, since they've now made their own versions specifically for 'blocking' instrument straps. I've seen some people say that these Fender ones are a rip-off, since you can get a similar thing 'free' from a couple of large Grolsch bottles. I like beer as much as the next guy, but if you can get two big bottles for £2.99, then you live next to the world's best off-license. For most people, these Fender ones will set you back less when all is said and done. Moreover, you get four to a pack so we're actually talking four bottles-worth here. Big question then; do they work? Yes, absolutely. It takes a bit of effort to fit them on, which is good - it indicates the kind of force necessary for them to come off again. Note that they're called strap BLOCKS rather than LOCKS - this isn't a device that can outright lock your strap against the instrument. Rather, what it does is add a lot of resistance to any movement of the strap off the button. If, like me, you're still at the stage of jamming on your room with a budget instrument then I can confidently tell you that these strap blocks, for an outlay of three pounds, will be all you need; they'll prevent the strap popping off at one end. If you were a regularly gigging musician with a more expensive axe to protect...? That's partly a personal judgement as to what you feel secure with. But these would certainly serve as a stop-gap until you settled on a locking device, at the very least. Being very unobtrusive (well, the black ones at least)they'd also be a good choice for those who don't want the aesthetic clutter of a strap lock extending off their instrument. All-in-all, I think Fender have made a valuable addition to the guitar-care market with these and, for the price, they're worth adding to everyone's gig bag.

When i saw these i thought to myself "huh? how can these keep my strap fixed to my guitar when i am whirling it round my head at one hundred miles and hour?" But yeah... they do. I mean i would not recommend pushing them as far as i mentioned above but my guitar has not gone walk about since i got these. They are quite hard to put on at first (especially if you have a thick strap) but that is a good thing as if they are too loose they wont work as well and it saves you the hassle of screwing things in and out as you would with other more fixed strap locks. I am very impressed with these. Hassle free strap locks for £3.50? Bargain! Fast postage too - 5stars

I bought three packs of these to use on my six electric guitars having seen good reviews on Amazon. I can honestly say that the reviews are correct. For such a simple product, the results are amazing. No more dropped guitars due to the strap coming loose and simple to apply (does require some firm stretching of the flexible locks to get them on). I would now never be without them and would suggest anyone who hasn't got them to give them a try. An essential purchase for all guitarists.

Buen producto. Si lo que quieres es no gastar mucho y asegurar un par de instrumentos es buena opción. Es fácil de instalar y no falla.

Jam one of these guys under your volume pot to stop accidentally turning it whilst playing. You can still turn it but with slightly more force required.

It does what it is supposed to do. Good for price and sturdy and leaves guitar more secure than before.

以前ストラトタイプのギターシンセのストラップがはずれてギターが落下し、ネックに傷がはいり、ケーブルをつなぐ部分も破損してしまい大けがしました。その後、このストラップロックを全てのギター、ベースに装着して心配はなくなりました。こんな安いものでギターが守れるなら最初からつけるに越したことはありません。

Se adaptan bien y protegen la correa de manera sencilla pero efectiva. Falta ver si con el tiempo la goma resiste
