Thanks Ladies! Glad to be here. Wow! that's a beautiful guitar Melissa. I have heard good things about Paul. I will be taking my guitar to him for sure when I get back home. Thank you all for your great advice.

Wow that's a beauty! Can I ask what strap locks do you use or recommend if you don't want to change the original. Thanks!

I changed the strapbolts to the standard RIC straplock bolt for my Schaller straplocks. They work great. If you want to maintain the vintage look, you'll have to forego straplocks in any event. Just keep the old bolts and use the new ones. You can always put the old ones back in whenever you want.
