I guess that makes you the Good Humor man.
I’ll take a double scoop vanilla please 
Ok or buy the original tried and tested Dunlop Strap lock for $21. Still less than $37.
But hey if you cash rich crazy kids want to blow your mula on a Schaller go for it!

I love the system, it’s really smooth “plug and play” concept. Little bit like “F1 pit stop tyre change” design vibe

I just don’t like the pointy-ness of the Schaller’s. That’s why I didn’t go with them.
And after buying 10 sets of them, that extra mula goes to other non-pointy fun bass thingys.

Yeah I use the Dunlop’s and they work fine. All my stuff has them. Even my amps have them #safetyfirst

I use the Fender Infinity locks. They work just fine, and are around $15
I recently started using these, and they work just fine on my 10 pound (or thereabouts) basses. I love products that do exactly what they are supposed to do, especially when they are dirt cheap.
I also like that they require no modifications to the bass, and you can even run your cord through the loop at the bottom.
Each of my basses has its own strap, and I rarely remove them, so “constant bending” is not a concern for me.

I started out with those. They worked fine on my bass but with my strap put a lot of pressure on the strap peg, as I had a thick strap.
FWIW I have had zero problems unscrewing my Schallers and putting the original strap pegs back on for resale. There is no real modification of the bass, as the Schaller screw does not require drilling, it just goes right in.

Agree. Yamaha makes good entry level saxes which sound good even going further. After you get comfortable with it and you find you want to play it more I would recommend replacing their mouth piece with a better one, tho, since that is the one thing you would use with any sax from basic to top gear and is worth investing a bit into (a Selmer would do imho).

One of the reasons i use straplocks, they’re cheaper than buying a strap for each bass

I forgot about that advantage. Thanks for mentioning it.

Just remember as @howard mentioned they put a lot of pressure on the strap pin if you have a thicker strap. This would have been an issue with my Bass but I have Schallers on it anyways and purchased these for my Ukuleles.

Thanks for the tip. Right now I’m using them on my Aerodyne with a 4" Walker & Williams leather strap. The clips snap on & off easily, so I don’t think that there is a problem. Definitely something to be aware of, though.

The headstock didnt even break on that guitar…
That sort of thing can happen if you close the case wrong on a Gibson

That’s because they are called Golden Earring (notice the double R). I don’t think “earing” is even a word?
They broke up very recently, by the way, after their guitarist George Kooymans was diagnosed with ALS… Tragic
