Pick Puck Testing on Various Guitar Finishes
If you are wondering about how the pick puck may affect your guitar's finish you are in the right place. In this blog article, I will perform a series of tests on my guitars and talk about finish safety. The bottom line is that the pick puck uses thousands of nano-sized suction cups to adhere to your guitar. While it doesn't use adhesive it does use suction, so certain finishes should be avoided.
In this next video, Chris demonstrates how to remove the pick puck safely without damaging the puck or your guitar's finish.
My pick puck stuck way too hard to the surface of my J45. It would not come off using your method. I put a few picks under the pick puck to wedge it up and when I finally was able to remove the pick puck pieces of the bottom of the puck remained stuck to my guitar. Lucky I could remove the pieces and saw no damage to the guitar. The bottom of the pick puck is now damaged and just barely sticks to the guitar – it still does work but not as described. Is this common?
