New and solid one-piece strap buttons made of hardened steel with self-tapping wood thread. Screw with self-tapping wood thread for maximum hold in wood for almost all instruments with existing screws in standard dimensions. Includes high-grade felt washers for ultimate protection of guitar's finish.
Important:
- We recommend choosing the strap button first to match the size of the existing hole in the guitar.
- If the hole is too big or too small, please choose a different strap button or reduce, close, re-drill or extend the hole.
- If necessary, countersink separately in the area of the outer lacquer layer to prevent the lacquer from flaking off when screwing in the strap button.
- Carefully screw in the strap button into the wood and, if it is too tight, unscrew it again and gradually drill up the drill hole.
- If the strap button is too easy to screw in, then reduce or close the hole and drill again appropriately.
- Tighten the strap button "hand-tight" to the instrument body. Do not continue by force. The wood may break, flake off the paint and tear off the strap button.
- Please check the secure fit of the strap button in the wood regularly and retighten the screw if necessary or reduce or close an enlarged hole as described and re-drill.
