A&L News Tomorrow?

I installed a top strap button on the neck heel of my Seagull Performer, since it only had the bottom strap button; Seagull had instructions for where to place it.  However, if there's no strap button on the bottom, I'd be concerned that there might not be a block of wood there in which to set the screw solidly.  In any case, to avoid cracking/splitting wood (I know from experience, thankfully not on my guitars ), you need to drill a pilot hole just slightly smaller in diameter than the screw you're using.  

Do you have a luthier you trust? Maybe that would be the best route.

Ladysolo, Most guitars will have a tail block. if there's a seam at the tail, then there's almost certain to be a tail block. To be certain, take a look in the hole with a flashlight and maybe a mirror.
Installing a strap button is a simple job. Use an electric drill with a bit a little smaller than the screw that comes with the button. Wrap some tape around the bit exposing as much of the bit as the length of the screw that extends out of the button. Drill the hole and screw in the button. I've put many of these both in the butt and the heel of a lot of instruments over the last 50 years and have yet to screw one up. The only one I've seen that was screwed up was a student who tried installing the button without a pilot hole. 
If you're not confident, it sure doesn't take a luthier to do this job. Find a friend who's handy with tools and ask her/him. I've seen plenty of Amis with straps.

These are really nice little guitars.  Congratulations.

ladyssolo,
If it were my guitar, i would use a bradawl prior to drilling the hole, and be very careful not to let the drill bit slip and scratch the guitar, to be extra safe put a treble thickness of masking tape on, prior to using the bradawl.
After saying all that, i have never used a guitar strap, and the first thing i do when i get a new guitar is to remove the strap pin in the base of the guitar.

The masking tape is a good idea as is making an indentation so the drill doesn't slip. I think you have the ability to do a good job of this Ladyssolo.

That's odd. I thought all guitars came with an endpin to attach a strap. They're in a tapered hole. Installing one with a screw will be easy. There has to be an endblock. Take a look inside with a small mirror. Just drill the hole and screw it in. No worries.

I'm pretty sure that she meant the endpin button TonyKgull, since she said, "So the Ami came without any strap buttons." and "The bottom one was the one I was concerned about mostly, as I can just fasten the other end around the headstock if needed."

Yup, you're right.  I remember reading that now.  Didn't when posting my last response.  lol.   Uh-oh.  Memory starting to go?  What next?!!    Nope, don't anyone dare answer that!
