| 49. Actually I found some picks to my liking |
|
I dropped off one of my guitars for intonation/neck adjustment at a Sam Ash. When I retrieved it they left in a the case a few complimentary Sam Ash black picks. They don't even have the thickness printed anywhere on them but I have found them to my liking. Not overly thick and stumbly but their not too thin and floppy either. Next time I go there I will have to by a bunch.
Thanks for everyone for their input!!
