No kidding! I have several of the clear V-picks, when dropped onto an oriental rug they are almost impossible to find. I've helped the situation a bit by painting a stripe on the picks with my wife's red nail polish. That said, I mostly play with my CL brown or casein picks.
Some V-Picks are available in dark blue, red and green. I favor those. But on the website, Vinnie claims that the clear ones are easiest to spot. You just have to see the shine off the surface, at the right angle. But those oriental rugs are busy enough to hide almost any color. So why are they so popular on performance stages?
