Detail 01
Metal construction
Won't deform or crack under strap tension the way plastic buttons can, which matters on heavier instruments.

D'AddarioMetal Guitar Strap Buttons Chrome
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Chrome strap buttons with mounting screws, for replacing worn or stripped buttons or adding one to a guitar that lacks it.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a stripped or corroded button on an electric or acoustic
- Adding a heel button to an acoustic that only has an endpin
- Keeping a spare pair in the case for stage repairs
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting locking security — these are standard buttons, not strap locks
- Guitars with gold or black hardware, where chrome will stand out
- Anyone unwilling to drill or fit a screw into a guitar body
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
Chrome finish
Matches chrome tuners and bridge hardware. Against gold or nickel it will read as a slightly different tone.
Detail 03
Standard button shape
Accepts ordinary strap ends with a slotted hole. It does not lock — the strap can still work its way off.
Detail 04
Screw-mounted
Goes into a pilot hole in the body or heel. An existing hole that's stripped may need a plug or larger screw.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Screw size may not match your existing holes — check before removing old buttons
- 02Drilling a new hole in a guitar body is permanent and can affect resale value
- 03Felt or fiber washers, if your old ones are worn, are a separate purchase
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do these work as strap locks?
No. These are standard strap buttons. A strap can still slip off under a hard move. Strap lock systems replace both the button and the strap end.
02Will these fit my acoustic guitar?
The buttons themselves are standard, but acoustic heel mounting is a repair-shop job on many guitars. Endpin replacement is a different part.
03What if my old screw hole is stripped?
A stripped hole won't hold. Common fixes are plugging with a glued hardwood dowel and re-drilling, or fitting a slightly larger screw.
04How many buttons come in the package?
Confirm the count on the product page before ordering, since a full guitar needs two and packaging varies.
