US Patent 7847171 Guitar with pick support

A guitar with pick holder apparatus provides a coil spring that is attachable to the guitar strings at a position next to the tuners. The coil spring has end portions with handles that are positioned to provide left and right gripping surfaces or grasping surfaces for the hands of a user, thus enabling the user to grip and stretch or bend the spring and provide gaps between the spring coils. These gaps between spring coils enable strings of the guitar to occupy the gaps so that when the loops are released, the coils attempt to return to an original coil spring position, thus grasping each guitar string in between two coils of the coil spring.
