Brilliant advice everyone, thanks for answering so fast. I've plenty of things to try now to fix the problem. I'll let you know how I get on.

Just recently taken delivery of a rather delicious 95 Streamer NT. It's lovely. It came with recessed strap locks. I think that they are a dunlop model, but I stand to be corrected. I gigged it 4 times last week, and every night I was super stressed out by the seemingly random failing of the front (nearest my left hand) strap lock. It's not a problem I can reproduce, but I think it happens when I tilt the headstock slightly upwards while I play. This is a problem, because that's how I like to play! Unless I concentrate on having the neck of the bass parallel with the floor (horizonntal) I'm rewarded with having to grapple to prevent my bass from falling whilst singing , whilst still playing the bassline! Not good enough really. I've ordered some new ones on line, but with the christmas post etc I can't see them arriving any time soon. I have a run of 5 weddings straight after xmas, and I need my bass to be fighting fit. Because these are recessed straplocks, it's a bit more complicated than just either not using the strap locks at all, or changing them for something else. I have tons of traditional schaller / dunlop straplocks lying around, but they're no use in this situation. I've considered gaffa tape.... but there must be a cleverer short term solution to my problem. Any help much appreciated.

Anyone buy one yet?

Super to deal with. Bought an ibanez EBD 600 from him, and it arrived promptly very well packed. A pleasure to do business with and would buy again from him with no hesitation.

I like it. This Warwick lark may be worth pursuing.
