If the metal strap holder tragically strips out of your guitar because you maybe jumped off the stage one too many times, dropped, dragged, or otherwise abused your guitar, there is an easy fix.
Grab some toothpicks and some wood glue.
1.) Fill the hole with a couple of toothpicks (depending on the size of the stripped out hole).
2.) Add wood glue to the hole.
3.) Screw the strap holder screw and metal flange back in.
You have effectively given the screw some more wood to grab onto, whilst simultaneously gluing it back into place.
The End.
