We've seen about everything from everybody, except picks. This can be dangerous, as can be read here: And this is why I'm tantrum quitting TalkBass.... I'll take a chance and show the pickage we've got here. (thanks Bee2U for the nice picture)

For bass I used one of these:
But I'm 100% fingers now, after putting all that time into learning 3 finger technique I can't justify do anything but.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2001 Location: northeast Ohio | | We got these printed at In Tune Custom Printed Guitar Picks by InTuneGP with our band's logo and they are awesome- 1 color one print, a gross was $65 with shipping and setup. I've always played with 2.0 gator grips and these are 1.0 but I absolutely love them. The surface is a little bit matte so they don't get slippery and the graphics are staying on incredibly well. They are also wearing awesome. I highly recommend them.
