Fastening


If you read in my previous entry some days ago, I bought this cheapo strap & Ernie Ball strap blocks. Let's put them to use; the flimsy strap could surely use some security. Verdict:

  • strap proved to be uncomfortable due to no cushioning  but easy to use
  • strap blocks are effective, secure strap slits easily after fastening
  • strap block - not easy to instal/ remove due to tough rubber material. Best for players who would want their strap to stay secured in their guitar for some time, not for constant removal

I still have the unused black pair & I'm giving it away to the first person who email me with the following subject matter: I want strap blocks!

With that, folks, we say goodbye to May.

*Strap blocks - taken 👍

Blocking


Was inspired by fellow blogger, bro Ijau DK, to try these since he purchased them last month (20/3) & vouched for their functionality & practicality. Nothing groundbreaking, just a set of strap button inserts to make sure the strap stays put especially after prolonged use. The expanded strap slits, if unattended to, would invite disaster during play (especially damaging during live performances) as your strap gives way leading to the instrument's death once it kisses the floor violently. Better safe than sorry.

One more thing, folks - stay home, stay safe.
