Your strap-lock system?
So, as I'm planning to get a new bass, I need strap locks as well for it. On my current bass I have Schaller strap-locks, which failed me hard on stage though once and again.

I will check first how much a replacement would cost. If it's just a couple of bucks, I get a local shop to change it. There's one that has really great prices for repairs. If it's too much, I try...
