I play with a pick and fingers and that mute and cover get in my until I remove them ... actually it gets in the way more when I play with a pick ...

The answer is: To each his own.
The question is: Why does this stupid "I hate the mute/The pickup cover gets in my way" thread keep coming up?

Good question, that is like the other good question, " Pick or Fingers?"

why ... because it gets in the way and it falls apart ...
and use a pick and fingers and thumb and a drumstick and whatever else you like to hit them strings ...

1.I like the handrest/pickup cover.
2.The mute does not get in my way.
3.I LOVE upside down 4001 C64 headstocks!
Now let's move on to something more worthy of our time and expertise.

1.Those who don't like handrest/pickup covers can remove them or buy a 4004.
2.Those who don't like mutes can remove them or by a 4004.
3.Those who don't like upside down headstocks can buy a 4004, or a 4003.
See RIC makes something for EVERYBODY!
