Review: Fits electric guitars with large or small strap buttons - The strap locks are called Planet Waves, but the packaging and strap locks are actually branded D'Addario - the parent company. Tested with a Squier Strat (14 mm diameter strap button), Epiphone Les Paul (14 mm diameter strap button), Gibson Les Paul (15.3 mm diameter strap button), PRS Custom 24 (15 mm diameter strap button). Worked on all of them, even when combined with a very thick leather strap. Very nice indeed. By comparison, the twist-style Dunlop strap lock could only work with a thin strap on the Strat or Epiphone, but not the others. Hole for the strap button to go into is 16.4 mm wide, but the button then needs to fit into a cup with a diameter of 15.5 mm (so 15.5 mm is the maximum diameter of your strap button). Hole for the strap button's neck is 9.3 mm (so that is the maximum width of the neck of your strap button - the part where the strap sits). This means that it will even work with some electro-acoustics where the jack and strap button are combined, but you will need to measure the neck of your button to make sure that yours is narrow enough. (This also sets the minimum width of the strap button, but that measurement is more complex, since it would need to be the width between one side of the button's neck, and the far side of the button's head. Quite simply; very few standard strap buttons are small enough to be a problem.) Plastic is 1.7 mm thick, so you need that much free space for it to fit between the strap and the button head. If you want to use it for holding a guitar cable, the cable slot is 6.4 mm wide at its narrowest point, so that's the maximum diameter of the cable. A 7 mm thick cloth-covered cable could be forced through with difficulty, but any thicker and it would cause the clip to remain open, allowing it to unclip from the guitar. Easy enough to fit with thin straps. Needed a bit more care to fit it with a thick leather strap (but even coped with a large, padded strap). Easier to use than the Dunlop twist style strap lock, and cannot accidentally be twisted off either. With thicker straps, it can press the leather strap onto the guitar finish, and over time may cause rubbing. Locks very well, not brave enough to test swinging the guitars over my head, but it doesn't feel like it could ever come off by accident, so it's much better than the Grolsch-style rubber washers. However, it is important that you keep the wire-slot side of the clip facing down towards the ground when you are holding the guitar; away from the guitar strap (the direction it would naturally be if you have a cable going through it). If you rotate it the other way up (so that the wire slot is aimed upwards towards your shoulder), then pull the guitar strap outwards, the stress from the strap gets put against the wire slot, which can cause it to unclip. Attached a picture to show this.
Review: Simple, convenient, and reliable - Absolutely perfect for Gibson/Epiphone SG which doesn't like any other locks: the rubber ones just don't hold, Dunlop rotating ones and D'Addario Planet Lock are just not thin enough. This one just clicks in and holds forever, simple, convenient, and reliable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many do you get in a pack? - it says minimum quantity is 3 - does this mean I'm ordering 6 or 3?**
A: You get 2 in a pack, so 6 total.  However, these were garbage, so I'd avoid them anyway.

**Q: One of the reviews said these were too small. Could anyone tell me the diameter of the hole so I can work out if they will fit my strat?**
A: "Top End" of the keyhole is 16mm diameter, and "Bottom End" of the keyhole is 9mm diameter. I've used these locks with complete satisfaction on Fender Strats and Teles fitted with the classic Fender "vintage" strap button. These locks are easy to use and 100% reliable.

**Q: Will these work with Gibson diamond button?**
A: I can’t say. I bought them for my Fender electro acoustic and the hole was too small so I opened it up a bit with a file and they fit ok now. Worth a try for the price but measure and voooare with info on the advert

**Q: Will this fit a gibson les paul? the jim dunlop twist ones don’t so just wondering :)**
A: I had no problem fitting them to mine. They are a very simple design and I have used them on several makes of guitar, cheap, cheerful but does the job unless you have some weird size strap knob fitted. For the price these are practically a throw away item, but definitely better than the Jim Dunlop's which I found unlock themselves and the strap can then detach itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for neck mounted strap buttons
*by I***R on 25 February 2025*

For £5 these are a cheap alternative to the likes of Schaller and work well. Of particular interest to me was the improvement it makes to my ES-339 which has the strap button mounted on the rear of the neck. This device lessens the strap angle and means that the guitar doesn't fall away from your body as much. Not as good as moving the button onto the horn but an improvement nonetheless.
