Do you always have a pick in your pocket ?

[thunderbyrd]

Picks everywhere.

I've got three in my pocket as I type. Since I started playing guitar 50+ years ago, I believe I've had at least 2-3-5 picks on me at all times.

Crazy....even when potting slacks on for a wedding or funeral, I've ALWAYS had at least 2 picks in my pocket.

You never know when a bands guitar player phones in sick and they announce for anyone who can play guitar.

While it's only happened to me 4-5 times in those 50+ years, best to be prepared!!

All over the place. There’s one in my wallet. I don’t always use picks but I hate looking for one when I want one. I leave them scattered around. In my cases too. Gig I’d keep a couple in my pocket. Used to do the tape on mic stand but now I don’t use them enough to mess with that.

 

[Orpheum]

Always at least two picks : one for electric and one for acoustic...

 

[AAT65]

Two plectra in my right back pocket, 90+% of the time. Just in case some urgent guitar-work comes up.

 

[Skyhook]

Is that what they mean by "pickpocket"?

 

[johnny k]

In my wallet.

 

[voskarp]

No, on the guitar and in the case, and on the amps, and in a drawer.

 

[ahiddentableau]

I keep a holder in my bag/briefcase, and a couple picks in my wallet. It's frustrating when you find yourself in a shop or some other place with a guitar you want to try but don't have a pick, and cool looking guitars have a way of turning up when you least expect it.

 

[offsideref]

I used to. *sigh*

 

[lupowitz]

Yes, I do.

 

[gimmeatele]

In my wallet, so yes I do, you just never know when you will need one, or two!

 

[RobRiggs]

Yep. My poor wife used to complain about finding them in the washing machine. After 30 years she finally gave up. Now she just drops them in the ashtray I use for pick storage.

 

[MatchlessMan]

No. I always have 4.

2 Fender medium in the little pocket they put in jeans, and 2 more (another medium and a fat pick for bass) in a little pouch on my key ring.

I’ve tried keeping them in my wallet but they always escape somehow.

 

[Tarkus60]

Ye and everywhere else. I get nice clean ones, when my wife does laundry.

 

[tubevibrato]

Always in wallet or center console

 

[ClashCityTele]

Always some in my wallet. Even wallets I use occasionally have picks in them.
I recently came across a small leather pouch perfect for 3 or 4 picks.
Every gig bag - picks. Amp bags - picks. 3 bags with Allen keys & picks.
I make my own from credit cards & ice cream lids.

 

[Sparky2]

For many years, always.

Can't leave home without a handful of picks in my front right pocket, and an old German Pfennig, for good luck.

 

[Tonetele]

Usedto when I could drop into a music room where a mate taught but not lately.

 

[Bob Womack]

I play more with my fingers than a pick.
