Hey that's interesting! I didn't know what you meant, because I'd never heard of using two straps before
Now that I see a picture though, I can see that it would make sense, espcially for heavy guitars.
To answer your question though, the strap locks I use wont fit two straps, unless you have really thin ones
Is it a stupid idea to put an extra set of strap pegs on your guitar? That way you wont have to worry about compatibility
Hey man, nah it's not stupid. But the guys from the company that makes the strap suggested I buy some kind of straplock and I was like "uuuh.... yea why?" "cause you need to fit two straps on there" and I was like "how is straplocks gonna help me with that???" and I still don't know. The company wasn't kind enough to suggest me a particular brand rather it sent me to a youtube video of like 4 different straplocks, none of which seemed to do what THEY wanted me to get. So yea... not sure what I'm gonna do, for the moment I quit playing guitar altogether and just wait to stumble upon a solution. It's really crappy how the business of guitar gear goes. But thanks for the advice and suggestion man. I appreciate it.

So it doesn't fit the DiMarzio.. got it
Hmmmm, I don't think I know any other solution that could come in handy, but one other thing - are you a crazy jumping onstage kind of guy - what's the reason for you to want to use straplocking devices? When I was performing with Voodoo, I was going crazy all over the stage and the straplocking had its very precise purpose, but right now, I don't find it necessary anymore, as I have to be much more careful with singing and playing. I'm asking, so might be I can offer a solution based on your exact thoughts
No man, I was just told by the company that makes the strap to get some kind of straplock. I don't dance around a bit but not more than a funk guitarist would. And I never sit down and practice ever cause I feel caged like that. The thing I need is for my guitar to stay in one exact position where I don't need to compensate it all the time which I have to now. Unless I can fit two straps on it (like in the picture) I don't see myself playing the guitar much longer I'm afraid.
