machinehead Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I have an American Standard Jaguar bass. It plays well and sounds superb in both active and passive. (And looks very cool in Olympic White) It's also lightweight and balances well on the strap with no neck-dive. However, I feel the strap on the top horn is turning inwards to the body a little too sharply. It's just a little mind and really, I can live with it. It just feels different to wearing a Jazz. So, can anyone recommend me a straplock that will move the strap just a little away from the top horn (0.5" or so will do) to roughly the Jazz position? Thanks for any advice. Frank.

Adee Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Try Dunlop SLS1501 Straploks they protrude by approx 0.5" may do the trick ! [b] [color=#222222][attachment=202744:DSL-NICKEL.jpg][/color][/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronj279 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The Warwick straplocks protrude quite a bit. certainly more than Schallers. Can't say about the dunlops though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrevorR Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I was going to suggest the Dunlops too. It's what I use on all my basses and I really like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andytre Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) the fender ones on my P bass make the strap stick out around 2cm from the horn Edited October 15, 2015 by Andytre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
