    I kind of wish the video went into strap length a bit more. As a newer player, you see stage presence on some idols and their guitar may hang down super low.. meanwhile I can only speak for myself but I can’t play chords that easily if the guitar is that low. So I don’t know how some people do it or they aren’t comfortable lol

Lace N tied the two ends supertight there not coming apart. Then you throw belts over shoulder and hold guitar. Were you feel most comfortable mark tha strap (cut 2slits/ holes.

    I have no problem with basic videos, but, if you are going to make a very good video, for beginners, why not note and I mean this nicely, that those strap buttons get loose so easily and watching your very expensive Fender hit the floor would really suck, if you are very lucky enough to start with a very nice Fender. I respectfully don't know why it is not brought up, in a friendly way, to add a strap lock, to secure your investment, putting a nice guitar in a case with a strap sucks and for Fender...why don't you make self locking straps, strap locks of higher quality, etc, as now great Fender Artists are being endorsed by Dimarzio, Planet Waves, on and on, for great products, that fender can make easily and the list is obviously huge. I am not trying to be a jerk, but almost all Fender guitars, or good ones, come with a free strap, so why not at least suggest, if you get a more expensive strap, with that annoying, feed the end in and out of loops, adjust the easy to adjust one for length first, then after buying a strap, like that, if you choose, which I don't, it is easier to match the length of it, in length, using the cheaper one, as a guide, but still get strap locks, buy a self locking strap, Planet Waves or Dimarzio Clip-Loc, plus you can buy extra ends cheap and just change the part around your neck. This is geared at beginners, like the video, so I am restraining obvious jokes, but MANY EXPERIENCED MUSICIANS/GUITARISTS do use straps, with no strap locks of any variety, that really is common and really stupid. This is a friendly hint at Fender to make some of these products, because D'Addario, Dimarzio, Planet Waves are endorsing your Artists, with their products, so why not make better straps, or locks. Food for thought, but because this is for beginners, regardless of the price of your guitar, please use good strap locks, or locking straps, as the ends shown on both straps will wear and your guitar will fall and I don't want that to happen to you. * The jokes and posts are funny, insightful, it is hard not to, but for real beginners, do lock your strap and FOR EXPERIENCED players I do see, not using strap locks on $2500-$4500...what are you thinking? Oh well! All the best, be safe and don't troll me, because I am just encouraging beginners to lock their strap to their guitar so it doesn't fall and try hard, not to be a jerk doing it! All the best and be safe!
