    Don't use a pick at all... like Jeff Beck!
    I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

        haha, thanks for the help guys. I tried sand paper, and it just got gunky after short usage.

        Honestly, it's pretty sick, I sweat on my hands more then you can imagine. I play relaxed, but when it's + 30, your hands are sweating, your sweating, etc, it gets shitty. I ll try some of these pick links, and ALSO see if there is a better grade self adhesive sandpaper

            Just super glue it to your finger. J/k Try a little gymnast chalk to keep the sweat down to a minimm and maybe were a wrist band on the hand to keep the sweat from dripping down your hand.

                  scotch tape on your fingers.. get the sticky stuff off the tape part of it... grind it into the pick..

                  works for me.

                    I don't remember if its considered tape or not it does come in rolls, but try the stuff they put down in strips on or by stairs to prevent slipping.

                      Crazy glue... Just put a dab on each side of the pick. Then press your fingers to it and count to 10.

                      Bring nail polish remover to the gig so you can soak it off when your done.

                      Be careful not to shake anyones hand or pick your nose or rub your face. You could really hurt someone or yourself.

                        Try dimpling them with a small nail.Three dimples in a triangular pattern,with the point at the bottom.
                        Bon Jovi is like a frozen Coca Cola.. It's cool, it's crunchy, but when all is said and done it is still pop....

                          Clayton-Standard-Cork-Grip-Picks-6-Pk-i389957.music I knew they made cork grips so I found these. Hope it helps.

                            I found that a hole never works because the pick spins around in circles. But 2 overlaping holes, like a sideways number 8 worked great.

                              I use these picks

                              From Brooklyn Gear

                              They're pretty expensive though, so I bought a bunch of Tortex 0.75's and used the pattern from the pick-boys, and went to work with my dremel, it works wonders for me.

                              Later,

                                Nevermind... I suggested Gorilla Snot, but didn't see someone else already did.
