Armadillo Shell Picks

I heard a story recently that when Django visited the US Duke Ellington presented him with a few Armadillo shell picks... now I don't know if this story is true or not, but living here in the southwest and having seen my share of Armadillo shells, I can attest to their sonic quality... I think when word gets out that Django used picks made from dead Armadillos, there will be far fewer of them laying along the Texas highways. Perhaps Elliot could add these to his coconut shell picks that I find really nice... And the really good news is, that to my knowledge, Armadillos are not an endangered species.

I don't think it's endangered, but it is the Official Small Mammal of Texas!
