About BandGuitarPicks.com…
This blog/website is pretty simple – it contains scanned pictures of band guitar picks! The picks you see here are not for sale or trade – they are my own personal collection of picks I’ve acquired throughout the years. I do have more guitar picks than the ones you’ll see here, but these are probably 75% of the picks I own.
If you are looking for guitar picks of a certain band or band member, use the search feature on the right side of the page. I have grouped some bands together on pages if I don’t have enough picks from one band to create a full page dedicated to them.
The scan of each guitar pick will show the front/back of the pick, unless the backside is blank, and then you’ll just see the frontside.
About Me…
I’m Jen and live in Las Vegas, where I have the opportunity to see lots of shows, but my luck at catching guitar picks has been pretty unsuccessful so far – most of the picks here have come from eBay:( I caught my first two picks back in 1992 at a Kiss concert – a Paul and a Gene pick. Fast-forward to 2004 and I only had a handful of picks, despite having attended countless concerts. In 2004 I caught a yellow Cheap Trick pick, and my friend caught a green one, and since I was jealous of his pick, it dawned on me to check eBay to see if I could find the green one too. Little did I know that would lead to an obsession with guitar picks! I got the green Cheap Trick pick, but that was only the beginning. I really had no idea all of my favorite bands had been making guitar picks all these years, and there were suddenly thousands of picks I coveted. I also had no idea other people collected guitar picks too! I thought I had a lot of picks, until recently discovering some people have thousands and thousands! I’m jealous!

hey jen,
no reason to be jealous about us all collecting picks. some of us are local hands who have been picking them up at shows now for years. me personally have been collecting 22 yrs, and a local hand off and on when theres actually local work to do. like i said welcome to our pick society, and hit me up if and when you wanna trade. you have a couple here i am missing and definatly would like to trade you for.

Haha that’s exactly how I started too!
At smaller venues it helps to ask techs before the show.
