Tired of having to buy cheap straps that just rip apart? Or having to deal with the strap slipping off of the strap buttons? No need to buy $20 dollar strap locks for your guitar. Here is a simple way to make a strap out of a belt and to keep the strap from falling off.
Before I start this I would like to apologize beforehand for the bad pictures (camera phone) and this is also my first instructable. So please enjoy!

says:
yes. if you screw them in too far and put too much pressure into the guitar, you may crack the finish and/or the body itself

DAMN, so its pretty risky business eh? i'd suppose you could compare the screws, to make sure that its not to long or short, but i wouldnt do this with my most prized of guitars either way.

yes but i had a crappy ibanez laying around and saw a picture of zakk wydle and his chain strap, it does the same damage as locking strap buttons. you can always buy smaller eye screws that will match with your strap buttons.
