mart Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I think it's quite cool building a little pick draw into your bass like that. Much more sophisticated a solution than sticking your spare picks to a mic stand. But after I'd read half a page of his "philosophy" I did start wondering if Mark D Philips could maybe learn a thing or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Clearly it is a gift that he choose to share with us. We should feel grateful and blessed that we are given the opportunity to share the experience of this sincere expression of his inspiration with each other. And it will increase in Value.

In fact I used the same pick for about 20 years - until I lost it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I am slightly reassured by the description... the "artist" says repeatedly that it's "one of a kind". Hopefully it will stay that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gruffers Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) It matches my slippers. I'd be lying if I said i didn't like the cherokee stylings. (duck and cover) Although I'm pretty sure only the creator himself will ever truly understand that chrome handle action... My Nan has an identical handle like that on her bathroom cupboard!
