Bigger Strap Button needed

[Rocker]

My Aria bass has standard sized strap buttons fitted. A heavy strap is held on, barely, by Fender rubber retainers, so I need one large strap button (chrome). Anyone know of a supplier? Thanks

Straplocks, always. Just makes more sense.

Or use a fender headstock string retainer.

That's what PRS use.

I have a set of two very large strap buttons. Will dig them out tomorrow morning and photograph them.

I used these on an old bass, no chance of the strap coming off once the rubber washer was on:

Depends on the style of bass, they suited my O Bass both might not look right on other styles.

Just a quick on-topic mention of strap locks, have some on my jazzbass and I thought they seemed a bit loose yesterday. Gave them a wiggle and the pegs into the bass itself were both loose, so had to tighten the screws....

No point in having the peg pull out of the Bass and it end on the floor. Check your screws!

I have these...

Pop over a PM if you are interested.

if you need it really big, could you use a headstock string retainer. ? same screw should fit through

Much easier to go with locks I would think. You can get top quality ones for well under £20.00 and they'll keep you safe and happy for a long time.
