Well one that works for me ok is that you go upto a girl at the bar ok...and you put an ice cube on the bar and crush it in front of her. You then say "Now that i have broken the ice can i buy you a drink?" Thats my pickup advice!!

Oh...shit...oh Pick ups for guitars...ohhh haha, teach me to read the thread!!
