Crack

I can never come to terms with the default Gibson strap buttons (right). They made way for the D'Addarios. 

I don't know why Gibson could not include a strap button felt cushion to prevent this from happening. Folks, if you pressure a metal contraption against a lacquered surface without any cushioning, over time, if this pressure is released, the surface will crack. 

This, to me, is a necessary supplement to any guitars featuring strap buttons. It's not a costly investment, folks, so do consider.

The guitar in question is my LP Junior.
