What is the Dunlop Straplok Dual Design system and why would I use it?

The Dunlop Straplok Dual Design system is a secure way to attach your guitar or bass strap, preventing accidental drops. It replaces your instrument's standard strap buttons with a locking mechanism, ensuring your strap stays firmly in place during performances or practice. This added security protects your valuable instrument from damage.

How does the "Dual Design" feature work?

The "Dual Design" means these strap retainers offer two ways to secure your strap. You can use the full locking mechanism for maximum security, or, if you prefer, you can use them as traditional strap buttons with any standard strap that doesn't have the locking mechanism attached. This provides flexibility for different situations.

Is the Dunlop Straplok system difficult to install on my guitar or bass?

Installation is straightforward. You'll replace your instrument's existing strap buttons with the Dunlop Straplok buttons using the original screws. Then, you attach the locking mechanisms to your strap. A Sweetwater Sales Engineer can offer personalized gear advice if you have any questions during installation.

What instruments are compatible with these strap retainers?

The Dunlop Straplok Dual Design system is designed for use with most guitars and basses. It comes as a pair, providing everything you need for one instrument. Its universal design ensures a secure fit for a wide range of electric, acoustic, and bass guitars, giving you peace of mind on stage or in the studio.

How secure are these strap locks?

These strap locks are engineered for maximum security. Once engaged, the locking mechanism creates a strong, reliable connection between your strap and instrument, virtually eliminating the risk of your strap coming loose. This robust design helps protect your instrument from unexpected falls, and they are covered by Sweetwater's free 2-year warranty.
