How would I put a strap on my guitar?

-My acoustic has a nob thing at the bottom of the body but nowhere else. My brothers electric has another nob thing though. What could I do to put on a strap?theres different straps for electric and acoustic guitars.



go to a music shop and ask for an acoustic guitar strap. electric guitars have strap nobs. acoustic ones have a nob on the back but not the front. an acoustic strap has kind of like a string loop and it goes around the tuner nob.You have three choices. You can get a strip of leather or nylon lace and attach the strap to that and then wind it around the headstock under the strings. You can buy an inexpensive guitar strap button like this one:

...which does what the lace does but looks nicer.



Finally, you can take your guitar to a tech and get a new strap button installed on the treble side of the heel of the neck.
electric guitars will most alway have two strap buttons (the pegs you hook the strap too), some acoustics do as well but in your case. you must put one strap on the bottom button and if the other end of your strap isnt just a sring like material you can tie a shoelace or some string and connect it to the headstock of your acoustic
You have to have a strap with a little sting on the end. But I only have my electric strap and I just use like a 6 inch piece of shoelace or strong string and loop it through the strap hole. You have to tie it underneath the strings on the headstock right by the nut
One end goes on the nob at the bottom and the other end ties around the neck of your guitar. ; )
