Brian Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 Mojo Picks, ok so you can make a guitar pick out of a silver quarter. But US $8.50 plus Buyer pays $1.50 Postage so were talkin $10 for something you can make yourself really REALLY cheap? $10 for Mojo, I though you had to go to the Mississippi Delta with less then that in your pocket to find your Mojo........

GEdwardJones Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 One of my co-workers found Mojo on his porch and then gave him to me and my then-girlfriend-now-wife for free. I'm pretty sure that Mojo was made for REALLY cheap, too.. All kidding aside, I'm almost positive that it's a felony to deface money (not a really enforced or enforcable one, but if you're advertising your defacement of cash....)

PaulNeeds Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 I like those plastic picks with the Alien head on them - don't know who makes them, but with a hole drilled to prevent them from spinning they're really comfy. Not so easy to find in south Wales though. Brian May used to use UK sixpenny pieces with a milled edge - no longer in circulation - no idea what he uses these days.

westhemann Posted August 13, 2003 Report Share Posted August 13, 2003 try dunlop 1 mm picks.very stiff but they are nylon so they glide over the strings instead of making that plastic pick scratching sound.you hear more of the note and less of the pick.

feylya Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Best pick I ever used was Kirk Hammet's pick from his S&M gigs :-) The Metallica and S&M logos made for a great grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
