Totally hand-crafted, each pick is made from the finest bell .020" brass and has been designed to offer maximum comfort for the player, while delivering great tone and sustain. Because the pick wraps around the knuckle of the finger, you can forget about losing it in the middle of a break. In most cases, you won't have to tighten the band - the double wraps hold the pick securely.
Picks for men, women and children! Our size ranges will cover all needs.
Available in Small, Medium and Large, you can refer to the chart below to determine your optimum size. We offer the picks in single units, because not all pickers have the same size index and middle finger or wish to be confined to using only two picks.
Note: Unless otherwise indicated, all Pick Shoppe fingerpicks are sold in single unit quantities. Images showing multiple picks are for reference only, so that you can see different views, types and materials. If picks *are* sold in multiple quantities, that detail will be clearly shown.
This photograph clearly illustrates how the Custom Comfort picks avoid contact with the cuticles, a major source of discomfort for players.
A frequent comment made is: "I don't even know I have picks on, they're so comfortable and non-intrusive"
Sizing your picks
Wrap your finger with masking tape as show in the photo to the right and make a mark across the tape as shown. Unwrap the tape from your finger and measure the distance between the pen marks. This is the measurement you can compare to the chart below for sizing. Use the inner wrap dimensions. If both fingers are straight and relatively the same size, that's all you need to do.
If however, you have fingers with enlarged knuckles (as I do) or your picking fingers are unequal in size, you should make several measurements for each finger - one at the cuticle and another around the knuckle. In such case, you should choose a pick size corresponding to the chart for the outer wrap (knuckle) dimensions. Do so for all fingers you wish to pick with. (I use a medium pick on my index finger, but a large on my middle finger, because I have some enlargement of the middle finger knuckle.)
