GUEST,Davy	Strap button (22)	RE: Strap button	22 Oct 04
As I understand it the danger of splitting the heel is because on most guitars it is end grain which is much easier to split particularly with mahogany and walnut. A repairer I know says he has repaired loads of split heels caused by strap buttons getting knocked, so it's not the fitting but accidents afterward that do it.
