how do you prevent bass from dropping

[Jaydenial]

have u guys ever encountered a problem where during time u play ur bass, if u move around too much or too much "pattern", then ur bass gets detached from your strap?

is there any way i can make sure the strap wont come off? the guitars and basses in jamming studios uses rubber stoppers so that the strap wont come off.. is there any other way besides using those big and ugly rubber stoppers?

[Jaydenial]

oh good good.. are the planet waves straps the same as the dunlop straploks?

 

[Zarin]

no its different..the straplocks are just a locking thingy that u have to fix on..the locking straps are straps with "built in" locking system sumthing like that ar..haha can go check the planetwaves website.

[Jaydenial]

wa so many people using it. i missed out on all these stufffs. i think i'll have to get the strap right away..

 

[Scary_Rock]

Hahaha! Yuppp yuppp.

 

[weckl-x]

I use this on my guitar.

Don't know how much though, it was a gift. Pretty solid, though I used to be worried about the plastic snapping.

 

[Jaydenial]

those kinds of plastic buckles can tahan bass weight anot? like very weak looking leh..

 

[holas]

personally i don't like the planetwaves strap with the lock thingy. looks out of shape to me.

i would suggest dunlop's straplok.

something like this http://www.jimdunlop.com/index.php?page=products/pip&id=139&pmh=products/accessories

cheers.

 

[jbarks]

i've had straploks on every bass i've owned except for my first one. never had any drop, and i don't expect them to come loose anytime soon

 

[Jaydenial]

where can i get the straplocks? straplocks are those metal screws right? doesnt include a strap right?
