locks

I am sorry to introduce myself with a complaint about the way the Warwick security locks are designed. The locks should not open that easy pressing the button, obviously because of the fact that it sticks out and is not protected with a surrounding elevated ring. In that way it would only...

Hi everyone I'm new to Warwick and I've just bought a Streamer Pro-M on ebay. When i got it in the post the recessed strap locks totally threw me. How do they work, and where can i get the parts that fit onto the strap. Cheers

Hey everyone. My new Alien came with strap locks and I do want to put them on because I would like to play live standing up. I'm a little scared about putting holes in an acoustic bass though. Has anyone done this before and where is the optimal place for them? Thanks much!

Hey everyone! ;) I recently picked up a '94 5 string Thumb NT. When I went to swap over my strap locks, I realised that the bass has recessed strap lock buttons, but worse, I couldn't use my Schallers, and Dunlops and new Warwick strap locks are too big for the hole! The piece inside looks...

I use a thick leather strap that doesn't fit between the standard Warwick strap locks. Is there some longer ones out there that I can use so I do not have to replace the whole setup?

Hi everyone! I have just bought an used Corvette Fretless Standard Feb/2007 edition, here in San Francisco, California. The bass is beautiful, perfect, and a good deal for US$500.00 in its original bag, wax, manual, tools, etc., but I need to find the strap lock tops. He did not have the strap...

Hi! I`m going to install Schaller at all my basses except the wick, but at some, the screw is a little bit smaller than one it is replacing. Will wood glue help it stay, or should I use super glue or what? Alternative ideas? And do any of you know where on the web I can get Schaller for a...

My 1999 Corvette came today (with wenge!!!) and has the old Dunlop straplocks on it. As I already have the straplocks for my '06 Corvette on my strap and I have a spare set of the new Warwick straplocks, I'm looking at changing out the Dunlops, which would allow me to switch basses while using...

well just came back from GC. it appears that schaller is no longer making they're U shaped strap locks. they sold the design to Proline, so I guess I will find out if the quailty is the same in the next week or so. I picked up a few sets. they look the same just not as beefy looking as the old...

Hi there, anyone have any idea on the life expectancy of the security strap lock system. My ones are just over a year old and they seem to be getting very loose when connected, especially the front neck end one, any ideas? Cheers

So, not long after I bought my $$ NT I noticed one kind of odd thing. The strap lock peg on the upper horn was installed running parallel with the upper horn, e.g. pointing somewhat upward (usually they are installed to run parallel with the neck to balance the bass). At first I was concerned...

Hi there, I have recently acquired a Corvette which has the recessed security locks on it, however, I do not have the pin part which goes on there. I ordered some 30308 C Top Locks directly from Warwick, but these do not work! Is there anywhere that I can get some that fit as intended into...

I have a Rockbass Streamer that came with normal strap locks. I bought Warwick security strap locks, as they seem the natural choice. The problem is that the stock strap locks were held by 4mm diameter screws, while the security starp locks are provided with 3.5mm diameter screws. So the...

Hi guys, Need to find the strap part of the recessed strap locks which I believe are made by Jim Dunlop. Anyone know if the regular Dunlop straplocks will work with the recessed plugs? They seem to be easy to come across here in the UK, but I can't find a dealer for the recessed kit. Ta P

My 97 vette needs new strap locks which I can't find. They are Dunlops. I called Dana B Goods and they don't have any and don't have a part # but they were looking. They haven't called me back yet. Any idea where I may find some. The new recessed Dunlops are two big for the existing holes...

I was at band practice tonight nothing special not jumping around or anything actually standing there and talking about writing new material when all off the sudden WHAM my brand new Corvette Bubinga hits the floor right on the tuning keys and bent my wireless cord. I inspected pretty carfully...

Damn, now i´m really fed up with my warwick security locks. today my 5th. locking Button broke and my bass went straight down on my foot and broke my toe! did anyone else experiece this kind of problems? the threaded part of the lock leves some "scars" inside the locking button: some old...

hi i am thinking of getting a streamer jazzman, and i am just wondering what a warwick security lock is?

Where can I buy Warwick strap locks? I would like to install strap locks on my Thumb 5-string and Corvette 6-string that are identical to the strap locks that came on my SSII 5-string.

I have a 99' thumb and one of the strap locks thats on it keeps coming loose. Does anybody know the brand of the strap locks they use, cause i was going to replace them.
