The Plectrum Box is a nice looking heavy wood (maple or rosewood) box, the shape of a plectrum and the size of an outstretched hand. Inside, it's lined with velvet like a jewellery box, with room for plectrums, slides, capos and, well, anything else that a guitarist might want to keep safe in a small box. They're not cheap - £50 for black, £65 for the nicer wood finishes - but they're a pretty good gift for an impossible-to-buy-for guitarist.

I'd never put out that much cash on a cheaply fabricated item like this, and who needs a friggin' guitar graphic on a box that's already shaped like a goddamned guitar pick?!?
ReplyDeletemore like for the guitarist who has everything but skill haha
ReplyDeletewhy would anyone need/want that
I have something similar to hold my picks. It's smaller, has Snoopy on it, is zippered and shaped like an Easter Egg, and made of metal.
ReplyDeleteIt was fifty cents at a thrift shop.
Being the fervent plectrum fetishist that I am, I would go for this except for the awful Telecaster graphic on the lid. The Tele is a fine guitar but C'mon!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of an old Saturday Night Live sketch: "Dude, it's got a place to stash your weed!"
