MusicNomad Acousti-Lok Strap Lock Adapter for Metric Output Jacks Reviews
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.
It does it’s job, but has flaws
I used this product on a Gibson J-45 and it did its job it fit and it works with my Rok-Lok. Although it works I want to caution the buyer with this product. If you put this product on do not count on being able to take it off, I personally don't have plans to but if I did it would totally mess up my pickup and twist up the wires. And also it does not stay in one place, it won't get tight enough to where it's locked in place but it doesn't come off so no worries there. So even though the product isn't perfect and ideal I am still happy with my purchase since it was necessary.
Works GREAT!
Works GREAT!
Be careful!
These are a great idea, but, while installing these on 4 of my guitars, 2 went on okay, 2 became nightmares. Be ready for a repair man.
I advise to just leave them where they end up when screwing them on, don't try to adjust.
Love my Acousti-Loks!
This is the second guitar to which I am adding an Acousti-Lok. While not my initial intention, I realized that since I plan to swap the same strap between the two guitars, I only needed one set of Schaller S-locks (each guitar takes one strap button plus one Acousti-Lok).
The instructions and online videos are great, and installation is a breeze. The strap is VERY secure and very easy to remove.
The Acousti-Lok needs about an extra 1/4" of space from the guitar case lining (at the end-pin). I had this built into a Hoffee case when I ordered it for one guitar. The hard shell case for the second guitar already had plenty of room.
Highly recommended.
Perfect
This thing solved a big problem for me. Now I can use a use a strap on my Epiphone Master Built without worrying about damaging the end pin jack or having the strap come loose. Beautifully made, fits perfectly. So glad I bought this.
Excellent Product
Simple, effective way to add a strap button to your LR Baggs endpin system. Works great with Schaller strap locks. It did not match the other reviewer's hardware, but is perfect with the black chrome Gotoh hardware on my Emerald Balor Bass. That said, I think Music Nomad should consider offering this in at least all of the same colors as the compatible Schaller locks.
Quality Solution
This product is simple and well made. I have more confidence that my strap will not disconnect from my guitar until I want. The color is not a match to other hardware on my guitar, but that is my only complaint.
