I found it in my local Goth gardening emporium, tucked between the carnivorous plants and taxidermy mice: a long pair of tweezers with a spatula on one end, designed for manicuring bonsai plants. Voilá—the perfect tool for fiddling around inside a hollowbody guitar. You can use it wrangle pickup wires and grounding cables, coax the cables for an internal acoustic guitar mic through the end pin hole, or just collect any stray debris that may have accumulated inside your guitar. (I don’t know about you, but I’m always finding weird stuff in there . . . )
There are other similar options out there—just Google “long bonsai tweezers.”
