Abstract: There is provided a holder for guitar picks that is adapted to be mounted to a guitar, a microphone stand or other structure. The holder provides quick and easy access to the guitar picks and comprises an arcuate coil of resilient wire secured to a retainer. The retainer has a base portion and a pair of arms extending from the base portion for clamping about the guitar or microphone stand. The arcuate coil of resilient wire is secured to the base portion of the retainer and has a plurality of individual turns that form a plurality of slots for receiving the guitar picks. Each individual turn of the arcuate coil has a substantially circular cross-section. In addition, the arms of the retainer clamp against the outer surface of the structure, such as the guitar or microphone stand, to support the retainer thereon.

Abstract: There is provided a guitar pick holder adapted to be mounted to the outer surface of a guitar, which holder provides quick and easy access to the guitar pick even by a musician holding the guitar. The guitar pick holder comprises a suction cup and an elongated coil of resilient wire. The suction cup has a lower portion for attachment to the flat surface by a vacuum force, and an upper portion that is supported above the flat surface by the lower portion. The elongated coil of resilient wire is secured to the upper portion of the suction cup and has an arcuate shape such that its outer periphery is greater than its inner periphery. In addition, the elongated coil has a plurality of individual turns that form a plurality of slots for receiving the guitar pick. Thus, the present invention permits insertion and retrieval of guitar picks to and from the guitar pick holder without requiring the musician to view the guitar pick holder.

Abstract: A toothbrush is arranged for reception within a housing, with the toothbrush arranged to be positioned between spring contacts within the housing, whereupon deflection of the toothbrush shaft relative to the contacts effects electrical communication upon excessive pressure being applied to the toothbrush shaft to actuate an audible alarm to indicate excessive pressure employed during a toothbrushing procedure.
