4.0 out of 5 stars Strap Locks Dunlop vs. Schaller, November 23, 2008
This review is from: Dunlop Dual Design Straplok System, Nickel (Electronics)
This review is actually a review for two, or rather two and half, products the Dunlop and Schaller strap locks. Dunlop having the original and dual design locks.

I have both types on my guitars.

First the Dunlop: (all finish types)
Installation was simple, screw was replaced with the one included in the package. I had to drill one of my guitars to enlarge the hole, easy. The finish of the lock was O.K. the black suffered the most with some dings and scratches, depending on the shipping and how long the locks were packed the finishing flaws will vary. I noticed it the most on black.

They feel secure and lock well in place; I still feel they are a bit far from the guitar body as compared to the Schallers. I would recommend the dual design as opposed to the original.

One big negative is the strap installment; your life could turn into hell depending on the strap ends thickness. And the lock is just not designed to be removed form... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Concept, Poor Hardware, February 15, 2010
This review is from: Dunlop Dual Design Straplok System, Nickel (Electronics)
The straplok system is a great concept; a quick release for your strap with added security to prevent your expensive (or favorite) guitar from accidently hitting the ground because the strap popped off. (Happened to my not so expensive guitar. Lucky, no damage.) All you have to do is replace the factory strap knobs with the ones in this system and viola, safe and secure. Problem is, with a Jackson PC-1, the factory screws don't work and sadly enough, the systems screws easily strip (have to tap deeper on my guitar and it is some hard wood) whether you use a standard phillips screwdriver or power driver to set at 1 (lowest) torque. It only comes with two screws which makes it more frustrating. These screws were obviously designed for self-tapping, so wouldn't logic have stepped in during the design process and said, "Guitars are made of different types of wood, so let's use a tough alloy to make the screws instead of getting them from a bargin bin to lower costs." Well, cost is an... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Confidence in these strap locks!, April 2, 2008

This review is from: Dunlop Dual Design Straplok System, Nickel (Electronics)
Just put these on my Les Paul. They screws fit perfectly into the guitar. Almost as if they were exactly like the factory ones that came out.

The instructions were very easy to follow in installing. And the locks are built very well. I would definitely recommend this brand. For the price, you really can't pass them up. They're worth every penny.

I would definitely recommend this to anybody who's spent money good hard earned money on their guitar. Specially if you're doing gigs and doing a lot of movin on stage.

Just remember to lube it once in awhile with WD-40 as the manual says. Also, check and make sure the lock works just to make sure all is well. Again it goes back to saving your guitar from an accidental drop.
