What a fabulous idea! I think that your really have something with this idea, thanx. As for smoothing down the side of your pick, this too is a novel idea. I use a Jim Dunlop 1 mm. and it does has a rough edge to it. I guess that I just got use to to it and that's it. Any more ideas that you have that we may have not thought of? You certainly caught everyones eyes with you very original ideas. I've had people directly e-mail me and said that you have some wonderful ideas. Thanx man and ... Keep on Jammin' Tony, I’ve never ever heard of molding a pick to your finger before. What a fabulous idea! I think that your really have something with this idea, thanx.

I don't use them but I've seen it done by guys that use them...drop them in hot water to change the shape a little to fit your thumb, you might go thru a few till you get it right. The other thing with normal picks, to get the rough dge off, rub them hard into the carpet, it will give it a smoother edge...there is a knack to it but it works for some players. A guy I used to play guitar with had mastered it. Regards Tony Hi Chris
