Now is when the Leathermen comes in. What we will do is take the buttons out using the pliers this could be a little hard. Take them out one by one and put them aside and do what you want with them.

Cutting the Slots for the Nobs

First, fold near the top and hold.

Now, take the Leathermen again and you will need the kife on it in order to cut a hole for the nob near the part farthest away from you as you hold it

Then, put it on the guitar and take the other side of the belt and find the slot were the buckle would go. Open it up on the sides so that it is wider and put this on the other nob.

The End
