I love it! I'll need another for my other guitar!

What I love most about this product is that it poses no harm to the finish of your baby. Whether you have a basic guitar or a really pricey one, you can be sure this won't mess it up. It's handy because it's not big and bulky. so you can place it just about anywhere, and the fact that the pick sticks out instead of slides in like a pocket (like other styles) is also a plus because it's easier to grab when you need it and easier to put back. I don't use picks a lot but I always have one at the ready and I can switch from fingering to picking at any moment!

More like "Sticks For 2 Minutes Buddy"

These "pick holders" ( I use quotation because they're barely pick holders) are some of the worst I've ever used. Absolutely nothing I do will get these to stick for more than MAYBE 2 minutes. I know some people don't like using adhesive on their guitars, but don't waste your money!

    I am constantly losing my guitar pics. I tried this little gadget and sure enough, I have a safe spot for my pick whenever I need it.

  • Definitly worth the money

    I tried using moisture to help it stick but it drops within seconds. Not minutes. Seconds!

    This pick holder has survived dozens of our punk rock rehearsals and approaching double-digit gigs. Sweat, vibrations and gyrations haven't loosened it a bit. It can be placed close enough yet out of the way of playing to make grabbing or storing picks a breeze. Fumbling for a pick or having to sing with a pick between lips or teeth is a thing of the past...love it!

  • Do not buy it lol

    First Of all i would lose it all the time lmao but I guess that's my fault but it doesn't stick for a long time so half and half I guess but go with another model instead they're way cheaper and better i only bought this one cause they didn't have the other one
