A belt with a kilt and guitar can be a problem, though. When I'm not wearing a waistcoat for an informal look I turn
my belt buckle off to the left side to make sure that it is clear of the back of the guitar. It's not a problem when seated,
but standing it's a bit of a worry. My guitar has taken several knocks and scratches in sessions over the years, but
I try to keep from adding to the damage.
To the OP, what was the guitar? (I know it's a kilt forum, but I'm interested in seeing what sort of guitars others are
playing.)

That particular guitar is a Norman B-20 made in Lapatrie, Quebec by the good folks at Godin. I also have a Garrison G-50, a Yamaha FG-345II, a Gibson ES137 and an American Fender Strat.
