Up for free!! The legendary Glo Pix. These are rediculously thin picks that are made of trippy glow-y plastic. They mesmerize when you turn them in the light.


They might work well as picks too, but they are thin as dental floss.

 

 

Did I mention I have two? One's gold, one's ruby. True beauties, lovingly stamped GLO PIX on their bodies.

I've got a Floyd Rose nut that someone can have. It doesn't have the screw-down locking bits. It's just the nut.

GONE!!!


I also have two straps. They're both just basic, cheap black straps.

EDIT: The strap on the left is gone. The one on the right is still available.

i'll take the strap!

As per the rules, since I've posted a bunch of stuff here I'm hoping I can make one small request. Does anybody have a single flat (not contoured) chrome humbucker cover they would be willing to part with? I can PayPal you a few bucks for shipping. Please!!!

This is a roughcut unfinished pick,

if someone would like to try finishing it themselves?

 

The Stubby in the photo is 3mm,

you will be getting a 2mm pick blank.

It is an inch long or slightly less.

You'll need a little rough sandpaper and also some fine, of various grades.

You can also try using various bench sanders.

I will send a little 'sanding pad' with 800 and 2500 grit,

so you can polish the tip at least, after you get it shaped and smoothed to your liking.

 

At least you know you'll be working with the real deal

and not one of the many woods posing as Lignum Vitae.

Unlike many hardwoods, which can be very toxic,

Lignum Vitae is taken as a medicine in many of it's forms,

so if you inhale the dust, it may help more than hurt.

 

The Europeans considered LV the most valuable commodity from the New World

(before they began finding precious stones and metals)

They devoted many early expeditions to harvesting the stuff,

because they thought it cured Syphilis.

 

The only thing that Lignum Vitae is currently accepted as,

by many traditional medical practicioners, is as a treatment for Arthritic diseases.

 

This wood is hard.

Sculpting it is not easy work.

I want you to feel my pain.

My inbox has pages of email notifications (I've been subscribed from the start basically)



I sent the Boss CS3 out to you today, like I said it works, but there is a short in the jack, and the battery clip is coming apart (still functions though). I got many years of good use out of it, and hope you do too. :thu:

Shipping was $4.05, sent priority mail so you should get it in 2-3 days.

Unfortunately I couldn't find those straps. They're probably in storage.
