Notes

  • Used in obtaining Hey Deze nuts for the Pagoda Quest.
  • On May 28, 2006, this item was changed from being a usable item to a weapon. It was initially classified as a guitar, but was then changed to an axe. Using this item from the inventory before this date yielded the following messages:
With your pick in hand, you rock the house for a bit. Then the house steadies, and you go about your business.
  • Without a pick:
You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't play this guitar without a pick.
