I've still got a few, but they're not easy to come by.

I honestly don't know where they go but they go. I use the little jazz picks also known as mandolin picks for speed (Fender #358) and those little
things are especially adept at hiding.

when you want to stick close to the kick drum. Good at other times also but best if used sparingly I think.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
