This may sound ridiculous, but, I recently bought the Planet Waves stomp pedal tuner (the chromatic one), and I’ve been digging it a lot. I did an “open thread” post in my blog asking folks about tuners when I was looking for one to replace my old Boss, and someone recommended Planet Waves. http://igblog.wordpress.com/2007/05/08/open-thread-what-kind-of-guitar-tuner-do-you-use/
It’s built like a brick, it’s easy to use, and there’s something about it that it gets the guitar in tune right on spot. I don’t know. The rest of my pedals have not been behavin’ good lately. But, the tuner, it’s kicking butt and doing a fine job…

Drayth,
Never heard of ‘em. I’ll have to check them out. I play dunlop Jazz III’s. They are really stiff and small. I love them…

Have you seen the Grip Guitar Pick? They are readily available through musiciansfriend.com. These are ergonomic, contoured guitar picks available in different thicknesses and materials. I never liked playing with a pick, but these have completely revolutionized my playing. I’ve found that after playing with this contoured pick for any period of time and then trying to go back to a flat pick is so un-natural. These really feel GREAT.

My guitar pick that I’ve had since I’ve gotten my guitar, and somehow have not broken it yet. (It’s a standard white Fender medium pick)

I really don’t have any cool guitar accessories so this will have to do! I definitely have the money to go get a few accessories, but I will be needing that money for the coming college season. Sigh.

my guitar stand, seriously. I play twice as much when the guitar is sat next me.

My Shubb Capo

You can adjust the tension depending on where you place it on the neck. I use a bunch of different alternate tunings with the capo placed at different places on the neck. By adjusting the tension on the capo, the guitar stays in tune much better than it did when I used a Kyser capo.
