can you put a strap on this guitar

A strap is included with the set. This particular strap style is to be tied on to the end pin and upper neck (in the hole where the tuning pins are). This is a common method of strap attachment but myself, I'd visit a local guitar store and buy a buck end-pin and a pin-oriented strap. Screw the end pin in the top of the body near the neck. It would be worth the purchase price. No need to spend a ton for a strap, but they range all the way from a few dollars to expensive. Buyers have a wide choice in strap options.

Ours came with a strap, and it has a knob on the bottom to put one on, I just couldn't figure out how to!

no it is permanently attached.... however if you check out some of the other reviewers I recall reading about someone who cut the strap off and replaced it with hooks and something like a longer guitar strap successfully. its in the reviews from last spring. check there.

Yes, but only a strap that has ties for the headstock. There is a strap button on the fat side of the body but not on the neck side. They make straps for acoustics that have ties that can wrap the end of the neck OR you can use an "Acoustic Strap Button" which Amazon sells too that can adapt a standard strap.

Many acoustic come with a bottom strap button only. Old school way is to tie a shoelace (or other such string) around the headstock under the strings and just above the nut. Google "how to put strap on acoustic" and you'll get stuff

The one I got had one little pin for a strap.. Which would go great if it came with another pin so you could wear a strap. I would choose another guitar.

You need to buy a classical guitar strap. There are many styles available from Amazon. The Hook is attached to the Guitar's hole from the bottom. The other end goes on your neck.

It can be. There is a peg on the end of the body, but not one at the top. You'll need a strong string (like a shoelace) to tie around the head of the guitar, beneath the strings.

The can be used, just know that acoustics strap button placement is important to the structural integrity of the guitar. Many acoustics do not come with strap buttons, so you could/should mount your own. In general the easy decision is to place the button on the neck heel. The tougher decision is placement of the button on the bottom of the guitar. If it has an internal pickup, then the end plug serves as a strap button. In general there is a block of wood at that end so you could mount a button there too. either way, before placement be certain the strap will not get hung up on anything after placement. So you need to pre-visualize the installation. BTW, these are great locks. The can be used, just know that acoustics strap button placement is important to the structural integrity of the guitar.

I just received the guitar today, and it has a second strap button installed. The instrument is drop-dead gorgeous, and the action seems right on the money. I haven't even tuned it yet, letting the wood swell or shrink to the local temperature and humidity.

The guitar has a peg at the bottom where you secure the strap end that has just the hole. The strap end with the strings is then attached underneath the guitar strings above the nut (above the frets, below the tuning pegs). Tie the strings in a double knot and you are set.For reference, this video has a demonstration with a slightly different guitar strap, while still using strings:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IG97du3hTks

It does require drilling a screw that's usually slightly larger than the screw holding the strap knob currently. As always (put barsoap in the tip/threads of the new "straplock" screw) and use the recommended size drill bit when "re-coring" for the new larger screw (have a electric drill and various small wood drill bits). If you have ANY doubt, then I'd say take it to a well trusted and referred guitar technician/luthier. Their experience is almost ALWAYS worth the money!!

no, it says in the manual "The best way to use a strap with this guitar is to use the end pin on the body of the guitar and then to loop shoe string through the other end to the strap and tie it behind the nut, under the strings. This will give the guitar the best balance." haven't tried that, yet, otherwise i'm happy with it!

There is a strap button at the base of the guitar but no 2nd one, so you would need another strap button on the lower neck area of the guitar. Based on what I see, that should not be too difficult to do, but most of them do require to use a screw for attaching. You can purchase strap buttons from many vendors.

You need to use an acoustic guitar strap. They attach with a plastic hook into the bottom of the sound hole and then go behind the body of the guitar and have a loop that goes around your neck. You can see one here: http://www.amazon.com/Levys-Leathers-Nylon-Classical-Guitar/dp/B0007WPHC2/ref=sr_1_20/181-5686815-2432402?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1378419138&sr=1-20

Jorge, The guitar strap is adjustable, so you may be able to adjust it to a size you want. I would assume it can be suitable for kids when resized- as well as for adults. I have one, and it was quite simple to adjust it to my liking.Hope this answers your question.

Yes it has a strap connection at the bottom. This guitar is by far the best bang for your buck, you won't be disappointed

Yes. We put a strap on guitar since it was a starter for our granddaughter.
