Screw-on Endpin Schaller Strap Lock Adapter

Now you can get strap-lock security from your gigging acoustic-electric, without drilling into or seriously modding your instrument, with the Music Nomad Acousti-Lok. This strap lock adapter screws directly onto the threads of your existing endpin output jack to accept any Schaller S-Lock- or strap lock-equipped guitar strap. Add a standard strap lock in place of your upper bout strap button, and with the Acousti-Lok from Sweetwater, you're as good as golden! The Acousti-Lok is a solid piece of machined black brass to provide the security your acoustic deserves. And with multiple options to accommodate the majority of acoustic guitars on the market, the Music Nomad Acousti-Lok guarantees the right fit for your instrument. Not compatible with recessed or flush mount jacks.

Installing the Music Nomad MN270 Acousti-Lok is as easy as 1-2-3.

Music Nomad MN270 Acousti-Lok Strap Lock Adapter Features:

  • Endpin strap lock adapter for your acoustic-electric
  • For Schaller strap locks and S-Locks
  • No drilling or modding required
  • Screws directly onto your endpin threads
  • Made from a solid piece of black brass
  • Fits all 3/8" x 32 standard thread jacks
  • Compatible with most Martin guitars with Fishman electronics, Taylor guitars up to 2002, Switchcraft output jacks, and LR Baggs Element Bronze systems
Per Music Nomad, the MN270's strap button should be aimed upward or slightly back when the guitar is in playing position.

Solves a common problem, but it needs to be longer.

This is a great concept that resolves a common problem of endpin jack and strap compatibility. Unfortunately for anyone not using a specific brand of strap locks, the adaptor is too short. The flap on a generic strap hits the cord once it's plugged in, tending to make it less secure. There is no room on the pin to add a rubber washer type strap retainer. Or a self-locking type of strap won't fit because the lock mechanism covers the jack. I understand that I'm asking something of a product that was designed for Schaller strap locks specifically, but it would be nice to have a model that is more generic in nature and longer that would fit more types of existing locking systems.

Works great!

Very easy to install. Works perfectly with the Shaller strap locks.

Liked it so much I purchased another

This is absolutely the best piece of gear I've found for attaching a strap to an acoustic electric guitar where the cable inserts into jack strap button combo!
This prevents the jack from coming loose which is not a good thing. Most straps cannot attach to the stock button because it is very narrow and, it makes it darn near impossible to attach a strap.
I have posted another review about this item. This item is perfect and, easy to attach, just follow the directions and, if you need more help music nomad has videos to clarify the install.
Seriously the best thing I've ever seen or used for a need like this.
Highly recommend this item it's just the answer for this situation. Just make sure you order the correct model for your guitar.

Perfect Strap Button

I have a guitar with a Fishman preamp and Jack and, this is an excellent piece of gear. Very easy to put on. Had to turn the jack a little to get it in the right place but, very minor adjustment. Any good strap will work perfect with this. Very solid and, no worry of the nut coming loose or losing the strap. Highly recommend this item.

Awesome!

This works on a Gretsch Gin Rickey, for anyone wanting a better way to put strap on it.
