Which pick set to buy from southord outlet?

Postby bubuna » 27 Nov 2006 2:34

Hi gang, I can't decide on what set to buy, the MPXS-32-0 $42.95 or MPXS-14-O $24.95? Would the 32pc set be a waste, too many picks that would not get used?

Thanks
bubuna

i have the 17 piece set and i think it will last me a long time

this is unless you are new to this or if you are experienced, if you are more experienced you would be more inclied to trying lots of different picks. but when it comes down to styles, there is really only a handful that get used regulary

Get the big set.

You can never go wrong with more tools.

And you get a really nice big case with it. That was you can add home made tools, or anything else just by taking out extra picks you may not want or need.

Then, if you mess something up, you're got spares.

Always get the big set. It's like an addicition, you can never have too much.

Remember, he who has the most toys wins.
