Rare Elvis Presley Guitar Pick Las Vegas Hilton 1975 $878.89  Sold by jj7439.  Check it out HERE.

Here’s what they have to say:  Very RARE Elvis Presley Guitar Pick used in concert at the Las Vegas Hilton in 1975. I had a guitar that I gave him with little gold and silver records pasted to the entire body of the guitar. He laughed, pulled me on the stage and said, “Welcome to ‘Let’s Make A Deal’ “. He then went on to say that the only thing thing that he had to give me was a scarf and his last guitar pick for the night’s show.

The King then took off is his scarf, wiped his forehead and chest with the scarf and put it around my neck. He then pulled me close with the scarf and kissed me! The kiss is not for sale! He then reached into his pocket, pulled out the guitar pick and gave it to me. It was the last guitar pick that he had and used for the evening’s show.

I have kept the guitar pick with the scarf in a clear plastic bag since he gave it to me. It has never been washed and contains the fading aroma of his cologne.

The condition of the guitar pick is as it was in 1975, showing visible signs of wear from his concert, which adds character and value. However, I believe that adds the personal touch to the pick.

The guitar pick is approximately 1.25″ X 1.25″ – the size of most bass players’ picksl
