Abstract
A strap clip useful for example for attaching a strap to the body of a musical instrument. The strap is U-shaped and includes an installation seat screwed to the body of the instrument, an upstanding strap hook part and an insertion part for being inserted into a cut in the strap. The cut in the strap is elongated along the strap and also has a wider region where the hook part of the clip is received. The insertion part is wider than the hook part, so that the insertion part holds the hook part of the U-shaped clip in the cut in the strap. The tip of the insertion part is bent downward toward the installation seat.
