A strap pin fitting includes: a base plate; a strap retaining portion arranged on the base plate and configured to retain a strap; a through-hole formed in the base plate and allowing insertion of a strap pin; and a presser plate attached to the base plate. The presser plate is movable between an open position where the through-hole is opened and where the operation of inserting the strap pin into the through-hole is allowed and a closed position where a part of the through-hole is closed and where detachment of the strap pin from the through-hole is prevented.

Strap pin fitting

A capotasto C includes a clampand a lever. The clampincludes a supporting barand a string pressing bar. The leveris engaged with the supporting barand with the string pressing bar. In a condition in which the clamphas a neckof a guitar between the supporting barand the string pressing bar, when the leveris pushed to the neck, the clampis closed, and a pressing padof a string pressing partof the clamppresses stringsonto a surfaceof the neck. When the leveris pulled out, the clampis opened by a biasing force of an open springof the clamp, and the capotasto C can be removed from the neck
