xilddx Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I changed my name to H786 XSP. It was a lot cheaper than getting a personalised number plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhysP Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I've known a few people that have ordered personalised plectrums from various places & the plectrums they've received have always been really cheap, sh*tty quality ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eight Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I've been thinking about getting some (just for myself - since I lose at least three picks a week) for ages now... but I can't think of anything to get printed on the damn things.

Noisyjon Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 What about we get a load of Dunlop ones done with Basschat's logo- Ped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezzaboy Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Re losing picks. Remember when you were a kid and your auntie used to knit you woolly mittens with a big bit of wool sewn to each glove and then you fed it through your sleeves? Well, you know where I`m going with this...Save you a bloomin fortune. Think I`ll get onto the patent office right noo. Jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubs Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I don't use picks for bass, but over the last 6 months I've been playing loooooaaads of guitar and I've reached the point that I've lost so many that I now randomly find ones that I've lost - I think my house has reached it's saturation point for lost picks. I bought a box of the Jim Dunlop USA Nylon .73mm picks and they’re all around the house somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robocorpse Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I'm down to my last few Jim Dunlop "Riffs" plectrums in bright red. I have NEVER found any since, they were discontinued in the UK, and most shops have never even heard of them. Anyone got a source? Must be the really lairy scarlet red or bright green ones in .73mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dropzone Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share Posted August 18, 2009 I used to play mainly guitar and have not got over using picks. I have tried but it is just built in. I use Dunlops Green 0.83, same as Lacuna Coils bassist. Thanks for the heads up guys. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
