Howdy! I've been playing guitar since I was in college and gigging professionally since 2012. I developed a problem with my picking hand that it would start cramping almost immediately and I wouldn't be able to hold on to a standard flatpick. Since I didn't want to stop playing, I had to get a little creative so I borrowed from some existing designs added my own touches and came out with a sturdy, effective hybrid thumbpick that combines a sturdy thumb band with a premium quality flatpick. After a few friends saw my design they started asking me to make some for them. Then I got a lot of encouragement from others in the industry and launched my own brand of picks using my design. I also had customers asking me for flatpick versions of my thumbpicks so I started selling those as well. I've had a few customers from this forum, so I decided I needed to join (and to talk Taylor Guitars since I have a 1994 710 that I've had since it was new). Take a minute to check out my picks at www.GoatWhiskeyPicks.com (http://www.GoatWhiskeyPicks.com) and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!
Thanks,
Mick

Great to have you here!!

I'm trying one--just placed an order

Hi Jersey tuning! It looks like your pick has been delivered. Did it arrive in good shape?
-
Yes--already enjoying it--and just ordered another (Tusq). Never been happy with regular thumb picks--just don't give me the right "feel" on the strings. Your contraption just seems more "organic".
-
Awesome!! You just keep enjoying those things and I'll make all that you want to buy. I really do appreciate your repeated business. That's probably the best compliment a manufacturer can get.

You need to get a real website instead of linking to a Reverb page where there's nothing to look at...
