washing of picks

[Flying_V]

hey just wanted to know if anybody out there washes their guitar picks and if there are any consequences?i usually wash my light coloured picsk cos they tend to get black after a period of usage...

 

[pooo]

Nope. I just use them, and throw them away when I start feeling dissatisfied with them.

wash your picks? That's a first.. 8O same as what pooo said.. you can find guitar picks in every corner of my room, lol

 

[pooo]

Erm, just a question... why would you want to wash your picks anyway when you can just go out and get one for a few cents?

 

[bin4christ]

theres a brilliant method for getting dirt off a celluloid pick. pass it over a lighter flame a few times.

for me ... like chanmin, i just use a '0' sandpaper and scratch over it with my picks ... dirt or not, doesnt matter even all the printed words have vanished ... :lol:

I wash my guitar picks in a washing machine twice a week to ensure that they are clean for usage.




* Okie I was jus kidding :lol:

i used to do that when i started playing the guitar. (nearly 20yrs ago!) especially then, i can't afford guitars picks. (its ony 30cents then!) the Ernie Ball ones in pink, yellow and white starts to get real dirty as the 'Ernie Ball' inprints starts to smudge from the sweat in my fingers. nothing wrong with washing, but there is no real need for u to actually...

guys, i feel this is an honest query on the part of the poster. so i guess its kind of 'mean' for us to assume its a 'stupid' post and treat it as such. when i 1st read the thread i find it funny, till i remember i used to do that when i was just into 2weeks of playing the guitar. but i just hope that this is not a 'joke' question from the poster...

My beloved Jazz III .... i have a habit of Clamping it between my lips ... and i dun wash it ...

 

[Flying_V]

hmmm lets see, im a sentimental person, i still use the very first pick i received...i might sound a bit cheapo here...but yeah, im a noob, not really sure abt all these stuff, i genuinely didnt know i was the only one who washed my picks...

 

[redjackal]

i dun wash. it dun seems to take dirty
do they?

the printings just fade off. and i dun care. lol
one pick can last me real long unless i lost it.

somehow the longer i use the pick, the more i love that pick!
i will cry over if i lost the pick. cause i'm so emo that i'm emocore =X
