Easy ukulele strap

Easy, fairly noninvasive way to get a strap put on your ukulele. This will work for any size ukulele. I purchased the Martin guitar strap button on Amazon. If you're small, such as I am, a child's size guitar strap will work nicely (and I'm not thin as you can see). This is the Mahalo U-35 ukulele BTW.

Hi there...I know you posted this a long time ago but I just watched it...I am curious...did you just screw the end pin in to the uke, or did you drill a small pilot hole first?

@BigredApril1951 I just slowly screwed the button into the uke. Very slowly as to to not crack the wood.

Did you use a regular guitar button to drill in at the bottom of the ukulele? I'm not very handy, so what did you use to drill in the guitar button at the bottom - does it affect the sound of the instrument? THanks so much! Your video is super helpful.

@krissblade - yes. A regular guitar strap button from the music store and it cost less than $2-3. I just carefully alignrd it and used a regular phillips head screw driver. Be careful to screw in slowly and not tighten too much so you dont crack the wood. It was very easy.
