World's cheapest strap locks

[Grand Wazoo]

And dare I say they are also the safest, I have tried with plenty of force to pull the strap off the strap button with the washer in place but the bugger just won't give hence they get the [size=4][font="Book Antiqua"][b]Grand Wazoo's seal of approval!![/b][/font][/size]

10 points if your bass colour is Fiesta Red as it matches perfectly with these!

Exactly what I use...I don't like drilling/putting new screws in for straplocks. Thing is these do work!

Where to buy? I've not seen these before.

Edit : oh right I'm a dumbass! I'll have to pick some up next time I need some booze.

These work so well they make other strap locks seem over engineered

I have some black ones from egay and they work perfectly.
That is until I have to take them off after each gig to get the bass back in the gigbag, not much of a job I hear you say but with arthritis it is

[woodster]

I use them too....

Here's some on EvilBay....

If you don't like Grolsch like me you can get them on home beer brewing websites in by the dozen apparently.

Well if you are like me i.e. a t-totaller you can walk into a pub and ask for some free discarded ones.

I have some nice blue ones from posh water on my JJ-Orangepeelneil recently very kindly supplied me with a second one to make up a set! I'd be interested in finding some black ones, although they would have to be the same type of stuff as the Grolsch ones-I've found ordinary rubber washers (shower fittings and the like) aren't stiff enough, and pull off too easily. I don't take my strap off, just put it in the case with them still on.

I'd forgotten about these, and was thinking about a strap lock system for a semi acoustic bass I've just bought, and these would be perfect. Very simple, also very quiet when using them. I find other systems on such basses can clatter about too much. Nice shout out. Cheers.

This work absolutely perfectly. So simple but so so effective, easy to replace and fun getting them!

Dammit! I just bought the Dunlop equivalent on feeBay - but they don't come with beer!

I use Planet Waves locking straps - they go on and come off easily, and lock onto the existing strap buttons.

Egay? You sure they're beer bottle washers?
