zombywoof Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 At home I keep all the doodads I use regularly in a cool old case I ran across. It has bakelite drawers and is covered with the same brown stuff Lifton used on its guitar cases in the 1950s. It is about the size of one of those cases that back in the day you put 45 rpm records in. I also have an old metal Black Diamond string display case in which I keep spare parts and other things I do not need on a regular basis. On the road, I hate to say it, but I just throw what I need in a WWII surplus gas mask bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissouriPicker Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I have a bag that I use for extra cables, mics, picks, strings, tuner, whatever is related to my music. Beyond that, I keep picks, capos, strings in my car's glove compartment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Morton Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 A mic bag will do the trick. JM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
struma6 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I have great wooden boxes made by a guy in Kentucky. I have a smallish box I use for picks and a larger box that I keep all my maintenance stuff in for string changes, cleaning polishing etc. They're gorgeous and work great. I'm going to get a larger one to hold other things as well. http://www.artmusic.net/coopers-wood-studio.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
