I'm kinda proud of this picks and bar holder I rigged up. This nutella snack pack container is perfect. One half is kinda shallow and great for keeping finger picks in easy reach. I used a patron bolo tie to hang it off the key head.

Yes, very tasteful. Being keyless, I miss out through having nothing to hang stuff off. Everything has a downside _________________ Make sleeping dogs tell the truth!

Fantastic! I love stuff like this. Non-steel players may not understand what we do with our feet and knees...or why we're so excited about new packaging on household goods. _________________ Marlen S12 and a ZT Club |

It must be confusing for someone to see me walk into a convenience store, buy a tin of Altoids, walk outside and dump all the mints into the trash.
The tin is the perfect size for a tone bar, a tuning wrench and a couple of sets of picks. Throw that in the gig bag and it's all together and the picks don't get crushed. |

I was using an altoid tin but I wanted something that would hang off the guitar for performance usage |

Is there some kind of matching container into which the Nutella part is pressed? |

no - these snack packs are available individually or as a 4 pack I think.
The bread sticks are in the deeper half, and a miserly portion of nutella in the shallow half. |

I’m still looking for those smaller M&M tubes for my bars. |

Mount one of the Sho Pro leg clips bOb sells to the back and just clip it to your guitar leg. No keys needed.

hahaha, I buy it for my girls. I was bored so I ate one and I'm sitting there staring at the empty container and eureka hit me.
Nutella is a bit too sweet, I'd rather just have some plain dark chocolate. But when that sweet tooth hits I don't discriminate |

That’s a cool idea! I like it! Also, I found the large M&M’s containers hold my bar AMD picks. Haven’t looked for any of those containers lately cuz I have a few, but I used to find them in CVS at the checkout counters. _________________ Sho-Bud Pro II Custom, GFI Ultra SD-10, Fender Pro Amp, Fender Mustang II Amp, Morrell 8-string lap, Epiphone 6-string lap, Galveston reso, etc. |

I have a small padded camera pouch with a zipper that I used to keep on my belt at shows. Sort of like a nerdy holster that holds your 6th (chord) shooter.. _________________ Marlen S12 and a ZT Club |

Thanks Jeremy for this brilliant idea!
On mine, I cut some foam for the bar to rest on and I used shelf liner paper instead of paint. Then I Velcro it on.

Can't remember the name of this thing, but I got it from Steel Guitars of Nashville a few years ago. Pretty sure someone on the Forum knows the name and how to get one.
