Detail 01
Brass
Dense and soft enough not to chew up the wood, hard enough to keep its shape under strap tension.

D'AddarioMetal Guitar Strap Buttons Brass
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Brass replacement strap buttons for guitar or bass. For swapping out worn or stripped stock buttons, or upgrading from plastic.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a button that's worked loose or stripped its hole
- Upgrading a budget instrument that shipped with plastic buttons
- Keeping a spare in the case for a mid-tour fix
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want a locking system that clips the strap shut
- Anyone unwilling to drive a screw into their instrument's body
- Guitars already fitted with strap locks — these won't mate with them
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
Metal, not plastic
Plastic buttons crack and shear off under a heavy instrument. Metal is the standard fix.
Detail 03
Button, not a strap lock
The strap still slips on and off by hand. Nothing mechanically holds it there.
Detail 04
Standard button profile
The lip is what retains the strap. A worn strap hole will still slip off a good button.
Detail 05
$9.99
Cheap enough to replace both ends at once rather than matching one old button to one new.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01You'll need a screwdriver and a steady hand — this screws into the body
- 02A stripped screw hole needs plugging with a toothpick and glue first
- 03Don't overtighten; brass screw heads will round off before the wood gives
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my guitar?
They use the standard strap button screw mounting found on most guitars and basses. If your existing button unscrews, these go in its place.
02Are these strap locks?
No. They're buttons. The strap slides on and off freely — there's no locking mechanism holding it in place.
03My strap keeps falling off. Will these fix it?
Only if the old button was worn flat. If the strap's holes have stretched, replace the strap or add rubber washers.
04Do I need to drill?
Not if you're replacing an existing button — reuse the hole. If the old hole is stripped, plug and re-drill it first.
