Best Straplocks
I had trouble finding good, reliable strap locks until I tried Ernie Balls. Unfortunately, cheaper ones tend to fall apart quickly. I'd be a shame if that led to damaging an instrument, which almost happened to me a couple of times.
Due to their construction (no screwed-in parts), they are super-reliable and can be trusted to keep your instrument safe. They also look cool and go very-well with EBMM guitars.

Quality has its price
I use these on all of my guitars so that I can use one strap, and clip on the guitar I want to use.
They maybe a bit more expensive than strap locks from other manufacturers, but these strap locks really are worth it.
Pros
+ They are super secure. They have never failed on me like some other strap locks.
+ They look good and they are available in different finishes to suit the instrument
+Easy to install.
Negatives
-A bit pricey, but I?d rather spend this money, than always worrying about the guitar falling.

Quick & Easy
I needed a strap lock that was reliable. I am impressed.
Pros:
- Sturdy construction
- Two point pressure system to lock/unlock
- Easy mount. Just screw it in.
- Low profile. It is not as bulky looking as other brands.
- Quick strap on & off
Cons:
- Ernie Ball does not sell the strap pins separately. You would need to buy whole sets if you have multiple guitars and want to use a single strap. This will cause unused strap locks which is a waste.

Nothing like it
I can't imagine using another strap lock, ever. I hadn't used my strap in months and now I use it all the time. The time and effort it saves is worth every penny
Just read the instructions - if you're confident drilling your guitar a bit deeper (in my case), take it to a luthier, it's gonna cost you just 10-15 extra bucks.

Snug as a glove
I picked up an Ernie Ball Stingray a while back for my studio and thought it could do with a set of strap locks so in keeping with the theme I picked a set of these up... I hate having to fill and bore holes in instruments and after watching the Ernie Ball demo video for fitting these locks I was a little hesitant but there was no need... they fitted like a glove in the holes from the existing buttons, though I can't vouch this for other instruments. Very sturdy, lock securely and look the biz on stingray with logo etc... Recommended!

BUY THIS IF YOU DONT OWN ONE ALREADY!.
As a teacher, these are my pet cause. For a serious student, there is nothing more embarrassing, or humiliating, than your guitar, slipping of the strap, and falling out of your hands mid performance. This thing is an essential component of a gigging set up. You can’t be on stage without one.

Simplicity itself to use.
With a gentle push your strap sticks to your guitar like glue and with a little punch it comes off again. I've had these on my heavy Les Paul Recording Bass for 15+ years and they have never needed replacing or tightening. All my guitars now have them. Some people are happy with a rubber washer, but if you need to remove the strap from your guitar to get it in the case every time, these strap locks are perfect.

Stable and reliable
The security locks by Ernie Ball can be described in two word: stable and reliable.
I use the Ernie Ball security locks for years on my Music Man Basses. The adjustment of these strap locks are very easy, you just need a screwdriver.
They are very stable, even everyday life in a band. I had in all the years not problems with them and nowadays all of my basses have the EB strap locks. And also the EB logo on the strap locks looks cool to.

good system but...
They have forgotten the possibility of mounting flush that was possible and would have made a master purchase if it was not also its high price!
The safety is very good considering that it is necessary to press 2 buttons at the same time!

VRey solid lock
This strap lock is very easy to install, secure and solid built. If you have more guitars you can use just one strap with this locking system. Ernie Ball strap lock is also less bulky than Schaller.
