Thread Name: Guitar Picks - How to keep from losing them
Subject: RE: Guitar Picks - How to keep from losing them
Got an old cigar case that used to be my granddad's. And I only use the big Fender "wedge" ones, which are harder not to notice.

BWL, that's fine so long as you remember it's there. At our folk club's New Year party, some of us were having a bit of a jam. One guy took out his guitar, struck a chord and said "God that sounds awful". Then we pointed out the plectrum stuck in there. Same guy embarrassed himself later on as well by putting a capo on the first fret and playing an A chord without moving the fingering one fret up - took him about a minute to work out what he was doing wrong there. He wasn't pissed, just having a "senior moment" I think. :-)
