These will probably sell quite well. Last few times I've had grolsch they haven't had the gasket either so it's not quite as easy to find them anymore either.

On Fender's website

I bought a set, £3 off eBay. They're fine.

Grolsch bottles don't seem to come with the rubber washers anymore.

Found them on Guitar Bitz. £2.95 inc P&P. You get one black pair and one red pair.

Needed some more but the only place I could find Grolsch with the washers around here was a Morrisons that I have to go out of my way to visit.

just get some metal washers. never lose your strap again. in fact, i believe my jagmaster was sold on here with the cool SHARK strap that never left that guitar.

If you don't want to drink the beer, buy them from a home brew supplier.
Google is your friend to find your cheapest local supplier.

Just route through the bins of a pub/nightclub in the early hours of the morning. Watch for broken glass though as it is a delicate, but sharp material.
