im gona make you some cool picks :)

@steevc I will have to dig around here, but I might have a few interesting ones. Worst case, we can marvel at the together, right? I have a a great deal of concert material (mostly hard rock & metal bands) ranging from Ozzfest 98' to just about before my kids were born circa 2013..lol priorities, what can I say.. I'll see what I can find this afternoon and check back. Happy Huntin' & Pickin'

Let me know. There is such a variety out there and they look cool on display. I'd like to add to my collection.

I haven't forgotten, have to locate my treasures. We moved a year ago & having toddlers - we must hide the goods..lol I will update ASAP, my apologies!

No worries. Buzz me on the chat when you have the time

I found one small container, but I've misplaced my pick holder.. Never put all your picks in one basket..😆I did find a few of my favorites though! I love those DAVA control picks - I'm not sure where I caught that one, but it plays so sweet! I saved your steemchat contact, so we can chat. And, yes.. my cousin is Vinnie Moore! The reason I began playing guitar. I have a red Hondo electric guitar that was (my very first guitar), that he played at a family cookout and signed for me. I was about 12 years old at the time & he shred that old, used guitar like it was a million dollar axe. It blew me away. Music is a powerful motivator! I'll be going to see him again in a few months, first time in 20 years! I'll try to grab a pick for you @steevc, nothing like having a pick half melted by a world class guitar shredder 😎. Here are a few picks I found (have more pics, will share in chat so I don't bomb this feed):

I can't get into chat right now, but those look interesting. Cool that Vinnie is your cousin. Did he give you lessons? I'm definitely no shredder. I'll check into chat later and we can discuss details. Cheers

No worries, I'm a full time father of two toddlers..lol I don't much free time, but when I do - I have technical difficulties 😆. Having bandwidth issues here on SteemIt, due to my verbose nature!

Yea it is really awesome that I got to meet him. I likely would've put down the guitar if I hadn't had that experience. He's a great teacher, but I never took lessons (in any form). Wished I had, but I have always been told to just remain self taught - by many teachers. I admire quite a few classically trained guitarists that I know personally and they admire my untrained/ untamed style. Funny how all guitarists think, isn't it? No matter the style or skill level, there's a deep appreciation for the craft that we all share. That's rare in any arena, if you ask me! I sent you a chat message, so we can chat whenever our paths align 😎, cheers

Cool little thing to do. I might have some laying around, I will check to see.

Cool. I've not had any additions for a while

I had a nice collection, until they got lost during a move :(

I'm fine with that...It's all the valuable concert t-shirts (not thinking they would ever fetch $100+) I threw away that really burns

It's crazy what people will pay for old stuff now. I hope you can make enough Steem to pay yourself back

thanks my crypto portfolio has been very generous to me this year. So I'm loving that :)

I make some out of gemstones occasionally. I might still have some picture Jasper that's cut thin enough to make a few more.

I'm in the UK. If you contact me on Steemit chat as steevc we can discuss.

Cool. It might take me a week or two to get around to making them. (I have some jewelry stuff I need to do first) but I'll certainly be in touch soon.

There's no rush. Talk soon

One of my most cherished possessions was a pink pick handed to me by Vinnie Vincent after an epic shred. I hadn't realized the ex-Kiss guitarist was a virtuoso until that moment, and had gone to see another act he was opening for (Iron Maiden).

Stolen.. sigh

Thanks for putting out a way for Steemit to grow in utility, and Steem to grow in value.

Cool!, didn't know you collected picks!

Here's a video I did of them a while back

Have you gotten new picks enough to make another video?

I've not had any new ones recently. Maybe I need to put out another request

You should! Each one has a story with it, and that's what makes it interesting. I dpn't play with a pick, but I'll check to see what postage costs to send from US to the UK on Monday.

Cool!, thats a lot of picks!... Also loved the telecaster, looks pretty good :D

I even use some of them at times for variety. I gained a load more at the guitar show this year.

This is a great #steemgig, though it's not labeled as such. If you edit the title to include [STEEMGIG], it'll be easier to find and promote.

Does it count as that? I'll have a look

Certainly does. Any offer or request for a service or product could be considered a #steemgig.

I'm currently writing an article promoting "audio steemgigs". Things like music, voice, mixing/mastering, etc. Could definitely find a place for this

Okay. Updated and included the tag

Great! Best of luck with your collection!

That one looks legit :d

I don't have the Pick of Destiny yet

@dreamrafa, got any extra picks?
