ABSTRACT:
A combined pick and slide holder for a stringed musical instrument is disclosed which includes a pick and slide holder body formed by first and second parallel major planer surfaces separated a predetermined distance, and establishing first and second pairs of parallel sides. One of the parallel sides of the first pair of parallel edges includes a pick holder compartment disposed inwardly from the side and extending between the first and second major planer surfaces, and including first and second pick holder compartment walls. A resilient pick holder member is disposed in the pick holder compartment and frictionally engages a plurality of stringed musical instrument picks in the compartment until forcibly removed by a user. The pick and slide holder also includes a slide holder member proximate the other parallel side of said first pair of parallel edges. The slide holder member includes a first region uncoupled from the pick and slide holder body formed by a cutout region extending from one of the sides of the second pair of parallel edges toward, but not completely to the other parallel side of the second pair of parallel edges. The slide holder member is inserted through a central region of an annular shaped slide, for frictionally engaging the slide with the slide holder member and the attached musical instrument support strap. Also included are means for facilitating attachments of the combined pick and slide holder to a musical instrument support strap for use by either right or left handed users and for temporarily holding a cigarette during a musical performance.
