Strap locks for a baby Taylor??!

What's Hot

My friend has a baby Taylor with the ES-B electrics. 
I’d like to get a set of straplocks but they seem to be an awkward size , particularly the end pin. 
Can anyone recommend something that works ??

    There's a thread on here : "Best strap attachment to endpin jack socket" which may be what you're looking for.

    For the front strap button you could use the Grolsch beer bottle top rubber washer.  Fender sell stiffer rubber washers for about £5 a pair, whereas Thomann have Harley Benton equivalents that are no different at £2 for 2 pairs.

    I prefer the Dunlop strap locks that go over the button on top of the strap and you twist to tighten them against the button like a cam works.

    The Dunlop ones didn’t work as there wasn’t enough room for them !!

    "ronseal" pretty much

     put the strap on the output jack and screw the "washer" on. Same principle as the old grolsh bottle washer.

    if you can screw it on,  perhaps this would work 


    I dont know if there's a second strap button on the heel of the taylor or its "tie at the headstock"  - so you'll need the rubber washer type if it did
