Acoustic Guitar Strap Peg things...

[dmb6743]

ok, my alvarez acoustic guitar only came w/ one guitar strap peg, so i have to tie my other end of the strap to the end of my guitar neck, which im not really a fan of. i've had this guitar for a little over a year, and have debated about seeing if there is a way to actually put in another peg. is this possible? im just checking before i go out and buy another guitar strap, nice one, since the one i have now is a piece of shit. anybody done it before?

take it to a guitar shop. they can add a peg.

If you call Alvarez's helpline, they will be able to tell you where on the guitar is the best place for the strap.
Just drill a small hole where they say, like a guide hole, then screw in the peg.
You can buy pegs at any guitar store, they're like $5 for a set.
It's really easy to do!

I was also wondering why my guitar has only one peg. I suppose I'll take mine to the shop as well. :)

take it to your local guitar shop. they drill a hole and insert the second peg. can be done in an afternoon and only costs ~$10

alright, since i have lessons at my guitar shop today, i'll do it after my lessons which will give me a little time to look around at shit and buy a line 6 dl4 pedal that ive been wanting. thanks for the help.

I really recommend against doing it yourself. Take it to somebody that knows what they're doing. It'll take 5-10 minutes and cost less thant $10.
