Neat trick to retrieve pick?

What I was wondering is: IF you should lose your licker license…what comes next?

Correct answer !

Man, ain't THAT the truth!!

I won't bring my BC picks outside for that reason. Did once, and spent an hour like a robin looking for a worm.

Just keep storing picks in your guitar. Eventually, you will be able to add a maraca to your play style.

I get the pick directly under the soundhole, reach in between the 3d & 4th strings with two fingers and pick it up.

Don't over-think it.

Lucky for me I am old enough to have cleared many an Etch a Sketch. Similar process, just raise it over your head and shake. No not the Steve Martin shake, you shake the guitar. Best of luck, and don't forget the safety goggles.

Shocking update. I picked up the guitar, and the pick FELL OUT. Didn't even have to shake it or reach for the glue & ruler.

...THAT was easy. Wha't the NEXT problem?
