| I have a Mid-80's 1717 Deep Bowl Legend and I have a question about the front strap mount. It is mounted below the neck, which is great for a playing stand (mostly how I have used it) but now I want to use it with a strap.
Should I be using a strap the goes to the neck? Or should I have a new mount added to the guitar? that seems a bit scary but what options do I have or what have others done??
thanks in advance
