What kind of guitar picks do SY use?
 
i'm curious.

kingcoffee 04.28.2006 10:05 AM

odd question. i have no clue. probably what ever they can get their hands on.

EDIT: Woops, I thought the topic was which ones YOU use.

Jim Dunlop .74-.88 with dotted grips

Yeah, I got a matchpick book full of the black ones. It's such a neat idea!
 
 



My friend has a 3.01 or something, and it's the thickest pick I ever saw, but it was surprisingly very comfortable.

I also thought is was about the picks we use. I deleted my earlier post.
For the record, I use Dunlop Yellow Gels, Extra Heavy. They get lost so easily since they are so light and transparent.

Seriously though, surely we all want to know where they buy their underwear from more? Or what brand of toothpaste they use? Or whether or not they advise buying speculums on the second-hand market?

CHABIB, WE WANT ANSWERS NOW!

Spiritual Amnesia 04.29.2006 07:42 AM
