Has anyone found that the underneath part of the pedal bar seems to be a magnet when you lose your finger pick, I could not find mine for a couple of days, until I came into practice one day after buying a new pick, and saw a shiny object under my pedal bar, and sure enough it was my old finger pick.
I hate when this happens, I have dropped more of them this week, nerve wrecking.
anyone have this problem? why do they hide there when they fall?. steveb.

And they're always in the last place you look too!

If they're in the second to the last place you looked, you've got bigger problems than losing picks!

Jay, soooo true. Only one thing worse is if you discover after 2 hours of frantic searching that they were not in any place you searched; rather still on your fingers, you know it 'tis best to head the ole saying,

my picks always end up under the pedal bar every time.or under the strings.
I think i'm going to try some spray glue.and let it setup ,then i think i can play real fast like Mike Silger.
Thanks Gary

Hey Carl, that has happened to me, I looked down and there they are right on my fingers, this is quite embarrasing especially after you get back from the nearest music store from buying new picks, I am afraid to go back to that store to buy anything else, I am sure they all laughed when I left the first time. steveb Desert Rose guitar 8+5.

Picks roll under the pedal board for the same reason that a piece of jelly toast will land on the jelly side if you accidently drop it. It has to do with Murphy's laws. These are the laws that describe the malevolent theory of the universe. For people who believe in this theory, these laws are more important than the teachings of the world's great religions or the big bang theory.
