What company makes great acoustic guitars and guitar picks?

Q. Is there one that makes good guitars and has accessories, like picks and pick holders? Preferably in different materials like rubber, nylon, and plastic.

Also tuning devices? I am looking for them for my band. We really want innovative, great sounding guitars.

Thank you.

Oh has to be in the United States, preferably in California.


Answer
There's a great guitar my boyfriend just picked up, it's from Boulder Creek Guitars. They have electronic tuning devices too. They are in Morgan Hill but I do not know if they sell direct. Their sites are:

They also sell Wedgie products, cool picks and drum stuff.

What are some good acoustic and electric guitars, picks, and cases? And where I can buy them?

Q. I'm thinking about getting some new guitars. Nothing SUPER expensive or anything and some good guitar picks. I know there are a bunch out there so... and I would like a good sturdy case for travel. Thanks! :)


Answer
First off, the guy on top is not correct. There are PLENTY of other good guitars and picks aside from from Fender. For acoustic, Ibanez and Takamine make some good guitars. For electric guitars, a good Epiphone (you'll have to try them yourself to decide) or Ibanez will work.

Picks normally seem the same but they can affect how you play and the sound of the guitar. Personally, I prefer Dunlop picks (the Tortex ones can play many styles and the Big Stubby picks not make a lot of the hollow noise when strummed).

For a case, it all depends on the size or shape of the guitar, but a Musician's Gear or Gator case work well for me.

I hope this helps!

Whenever i play my acoustic guitar my pick always moves around in my fingers and eventually drops. if i holf it too tight im too tense to play but, because i hold it loosely i drop it. I have been playing electric guitar forever and never had this problem but whenever i strum chords it arises. What are some suggestions/techniques i could use to avoid this problem?


Answer
Try "COOL" guitar picks. They have a roughened surface that is similar to sand paper and make them easier to hold... they also work very well if you work up a sweat. They aren't cheap, however.

BTW a lot of guitar pickers have this problem which is why many of the bands have multiple picks tied onto the mic booms with a very light thread. If they drop a pick or break one, the next new one is right there in front of them, hanging next to the mic.

Where can i buy cool acoustic guitar pick guards?

I am making an acoustic guitar in wood shop and i would like to buy a pick guard to put on it. The face is a tan color and the sides are dark brown. What would look good on it. Also, if you have experience making guitars do you know if the pick guard goes on before or after the final coat of finish. Thanks in advance!


Answer
definetly ebay . ebay has pick guards that has inlays in it. beautifull. or you can go the way i did, and get really nice laquer and paint. and let people see the beautifull wood. laquere is real tough agiasnts picks. so show off that wood. but its personnaly your choice. ebay would be a good place to go to. they have a wider selection than amazon.
