July 1, I've enjoyed making these Butterfly Finger Picks the last 10 years for everyone to Thank you very much for your great support! I am no longer making and selling these picks. I've become too busy with other projects. Nobody on eBay or Amazon or anywhere else is making these picks, or is authorized to represent these picks, even if they have copied photos and verbiage from this website. If anybody in the future becomes authorized to make and sell and represent these picks, I will list a link to them here. The only way to get these picks right now is to make your own, or maybe find a willing person to make them for you.

Greetings I got my picks, and they are amazing! I had stopped playing classical guitar because trying to keep my nails in shape was such a hassle especially since they kept breaking. I am loving playing it again! I really like the feel and the sound I get with these picks - and it didn't take much to adjust them and get used to playing with them. Colin Ontario, Canada I've been using you picks for a number of years folks and they really strike a wonderful compromise between projection, tone and practicality. I set up my own instruments, cut my slides, saddles and nuts and nothing comes close to what you have achieved for fingerstyle players who place the natural tone of their instrument at the fore. Hope more future success to your product.

Each pick has a hard triangular wedge at the base which allows you to grip it with incredible ease and also provides you with great control of the pick. One of the things I really like about them is, again like nails, the picks have a slight curve to them, so you can get decidedly different tones of attack on the strings depending upon which side you face downward. It is amazing that they are so easy to play.

I had to read an re-read the instructions and tips several times and it took several hours to get them just right. I removed all but the thumb pick and ring finger, and I could play pretty well with a good sound. The butterflies enable me to do that. Mark the wire 37 millimeters from each end. Mr Fixit eh. Also mark the center at Unfortunately, it's still no match to the beating my nails get from my job. With some experimentation with pick fittings and adjusting the angles of the fingers I could play roughly.
