"Hey, my name's Brian Medeiros. I'm a musician. I'm gong to show you how to put a guitar strap on. First of all you've got your guitar strap here, and then you've got your acoustic guitar, could be an electric guitar, it doesn't matter. This little string here attaches underneath the frets above the neck of the guitar. Once you have that attached then we're going to take it down to the bottom of the guitar, and you just attach this here. On the bottom there's a little button that you can pop through that hole on your strap. Okay now we have, picking up the guitar very carefully, we have the strap on. And how you adjust the strap is using this little adjustment here if I wanted to make it tighter simply pull it down a little bit. And now you have it tight, nice and ready to rock. That's how you put your guitar strap on."
