Detail 01
Elliptical head shape
The oval profile grips the strap slot better than a small round button, so the strap is less likely to slip off the end.

D'AddarioElliptical End Pin Strap Button Black
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Black strap button that replaces an acoustic guitar's end pin, giving a strap a fixed anchor. For players adding a strap to an acoustic that lacks one.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic players tired of tying a strap to the headstock
- Matching black hardware on a guitar with black tuners or pins
- Swapping a plain end pin for a strap-ready button
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Guitars that already have a functioning end pin strap button
- Players wanting a locking strap system for heavy stage use
- Instruments with an endpin output jack — that hole is occupied
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Black finish
Blends with black tuners, bridge pins and dark finishes. Shows scuffs less than plated hardware but can scratch to bare metal.
Detail 03
End pin position
Mounts at the tail block, the thickest part of the acoustic body. That's the only spot strong enough to carry a strap's load.
Detail 04
Single button
Covers the tail end only. A strap that runs to the neck heel needs a second button installed there.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01One button per package — a full two-point setup needs two
- 02Installation is a screw into the tail block; check your existing hole size
- 03No strap or locking hardware assumed — buy those separately
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my acoustic?
It mounts at the standard end pin spot on the tail. If a pickup's endpin jack lives there, that location is already taken and this won't fit.
02Do I need one or two?
One if you tie the other strap end to the headstock. Two if you want the strap anchored at both the tail and the neck heel.
03Does it lock the strap on?
No. It's a standard button with an elliptical head that helps hold the strap slot. Locking hardware is a separate product.
04Can I install this myself?
It screws into the tail block. If the existing hole needs widening or drilling on a finished acoustic, have a tech do it.
