I don't usually use a pick, but somebody was thinking when they created this. Genius.

PICK PUNCH Make your own guitar picks!

I don't use a pick either, but that's gotta be one of the coolest inventions I've seen in a while! If I had that punch, I would collect a few interesting cards throughout the year and punch out some unique designs to slip in my family/friends Xmas Cards. Something they'd never expect.

Edit: I just ordered one. lol

Edit again: Wow! A confirmation with tracking number arrived within an hour. That was fast!

Who needs a punch? I just draw the shape, cut it out w/ scissors and smooth the edges w/ a nail file

I don't always use a pick, but when I do, I punch my own.




Stay thirsty my friends.

I have found that an excellent material for smoothing the edges of a pick is cardboard.
