Since I'm always browsing musical gear and odd bits of hardware that I have little intention of buying, I've trained advertising algorithms to feed me endlessly curious ads. Here's what I take to be the most advanced system ever assembled for getting a pick out from inside your mandolin or guitar. And a bargain price, too!

Wow. This morning I didn't even know that there was an actual thing called a spudger. Had I known, I would also have known how badly I needed one. Oh, sweet innocence! Amazon now has me on their spudger list, too.
I've always had success with the pencil method (I invented it until someone tells me otherwise, lol!), I get the pick located opposite the sound-hole, I then hold it in place with the erasure end of the pencil, I turn the instrument over while holding the pick in place with the pencil then I release the pencil quickly thus allowing the pick to fall out of the sound-hole (usually).
If you patent that, the price of pencils will double. ♫Quote:

The spudgers must be the tools for retrieving the potatoes from your ears. :)Quote:
