guitarists and bassists, how often do you lose your picks?

[shioks76]

umm where to buy stubbies?'

 

[Guest]

i think u can buy stubbies at davis guitar.

and lol i dislike the dunlop tortex picks. feels so..... powdery. i keep dropping it or it keeps slipping in my fingers. :?

 

[crozzfire]

haha stubbies imo are great for palm muting and stuff or watever la..yeah dunlop tortex picks keep slipping out of my fingers..very uncomfortable..lucky i have a huge variety of picks to choose from

 

[p4zl]

ranking also have stubby

 

[Weiht]

i lose my picks almost all the time. My room has many picks, yet i seem to always misplace them in my room... Is it a curse?

currently using dunlop tortex, feels gd. Used to be jazz 3.

 

[jasonlefort]

i've never had tt problem of dropping tortex picks....hmm...oh well...

 

[Taylorboy87]

nope. i love all my picks, so i rarely lose them. WAH! so many stubby users!! i finally found my pick's identity. I love my stubby 2mm. I'm gonna make a stupid sterotype now, all pro players use stubby man, their attacks during solo also very powderfoolll one...cos stubbys are the best \m/

my picks are my fingers, and I hope I never lose them 8)

but when I do get actual picks, I lose them really quick.

 

[fgl]

I stick mine under the edges of my pickguard (strat)... I normally lose em when kakis / guest jammers borrow offa me and dont return em... :x

I use fender .73mm for my bass. Bought like a box of 12 for 4 bucks at swee lee bras basah but now can't seem to find them anymore. I'm down to my last 2 picks now

Anyone seen them at the other swee lee? It's yellow and not those translucent one. A solid coloured one. They're so nice to play with.

 

[DarknessFury]

hmm....been using dunlop tortex pcks....pretty good...but i seem to wear 'em out quite fast...

High 5, brudder! I'm also a Tortex user...but mine has The Wedge imprinted on it, lol...it's white...and mine wears out pretty fast too...like, a week and its lost its pretty shape...

 

[BlackMoo]

been using jazz iiis... and playing with moderate to hard picking attack... i lose picks like... once a week.... its really irritating..

Ahoy fellow Jazz III user! Yeah I usually buy a whole cup of picks and by the end of the month that cup would be empty. Scares me sometimes. Seems like someone's eating the picks.

i hate to lose my picks now coz i will feel the loss 8) bone material picks @ $5 each - Davis. i love its interaction with strings.

 

[killinghall]

I probably lose about 3 picks in a year; they're either under the bed or table or below some ornament. There're much, more lying in the studio; as my friend attests by throwing them at me every time I step in for a recording.

No sweat lah, fortunately...since these Jim Dunlop Jazz III picks are quite cheap.

But I dread the day when they are no longer produced.

 

[Guest]

y'all make me wanna try them.

where can i purchase those jim dunlop jazz III picks?

 

[killinghall]

chester, you'll find them at Swee Lee and City Music.

 

[Guest]

ooookay! time to go pick-buying!

 

[Phil]

where can i purchase those jim dunlop jazz III picks?

Davis sells them at 3 for $2.

I've 6 of them, along with the stubbies and whatever else I bought on whim. I put all on top of the amp, and I hardly lose any.

 

[slapwalkpop]

chester: but i think play bass without pick sounds much nicer. just my opinion tho. and oh, i dont lose picks cos i dont really use em

 

[Guest]

heh, one man's trash is another man's treasure.
