Title: Ukulele Strap Button Installation
Post by: Squash on August 21, 2018, 12:32:03 PM

I just ordered a Larrivee tenor ukulele, and I want to install a strap button on the bottom. Do any of you have experience with this?

I've never needed a strap on one of my ukes. I just hold them between my forearm and body. Maybe go Willie Nelson style?

There are necklace-type straps for ukuleles that wrap under and hook onto the sound hole. Work really good.
