With Schaller Security Locks, Schaller developed and patented a completely new product in 1981, probably the most secure connection between guitar and strap.

S-Locks: S for Safe, Silent & Schaller strap locks
In the development of the new revolutionary S-Locks we have combined 3 parts to perfection:
-
unique one-piece hardened steel strap buttons
-
S-Locks suitable for different belt thickness with ergonomic operation
-
and a patented locking nut - Lock-Wheel - with triple security architecture.

The new Lock-Wheel: featuring 3-stage safety concept
