Note: Please remember
- for the BEST
results, Paul Smith recommends that you learn to finger pick
while using
plastic finger picks. These days it's not easy to find them in stores so they're
offered
here on
this site. Also, the other
guys who sell picks on the internet are not going
to help you
to fit your picks or learn to use them,
they won't even tell you how to wear them correctly.
Their only concern
is to sell you something. This is where you will get all that
information
and much much
more. Please buy your picks
here! We don't want you to get discourage
and
quite using them.

your fingers please read under

1.
If your ring finger measurement is
1 + 7/8 inches, or larger, then you should get Large
Picks.
2. If
it is exactly 1+ 7/8", you might want
to measure the other two fingers too.
If the other two are larger than 1+7/8",
you should get Large Picks.
3. If all your fingers are 1+7/8"
or smaller, you need Medium Picks.
We
don't want to send you the wrong size picks, so please measure to be sure!
Sorry, but we cannot
guarantee that you pick the correct size. It has to be your
call!!!

Fitting
Plastic Finger Picks
Jim Dunlop plastic finger picks
as they come from the factory are not fitted to your fingers personally.
However, they can be made to fit just right. They should fit snuggly enough
that they don't come
flying off when playing but not so tight that they hurt after wearing them for a
while. If you buy finger picks
from this site, we will include instructions
with the picks about how to properly wear the picks and details
about how to accomplish a good comfortable, usable fit. Also included is
suggestions about how to identify
the picks quickly. Paul has done this many, many times, and these are his easy
to follow instructions and
suggestions. If you follow these, then your plastic finger picks will fit each
finger just right; they will feel and
work great, and they will be "your personal picks."
Customized Picks
We can further customize "your picks".
Paul Smith has been using plastic finger picks since 1971. His years
of experience can be passed on to you this way.
These customized picks are actually individually reshaped by
hand by Paul using only hand tools. Then he polishes the tongue of each
pick with steel wool making a smooth
finish. This helps make them easier to get between the strings of "Dreadnought
style" or "steel" string guitars,
where the strings are closer together. This is something that
Paul has found that makes the picks more forgiving,
a little less cumbersome, and
seems to help people who are just leaning to play with plastic picks. However,
on a "classical", or "concert"
type guitar with "nylon strings", customized picks although helpful, are not really
necessary. Paul will also work on the thumb picks
too. This will help prevent some of that annoying sound and the
damage that comes with hitting the top of your guitar with that pointy thumb pick as
it comes from the factory.
This little extra custom job is all done by hand personally by Paul Smith using
only hand tools. It is well worth
the little extra money he charges for the time he spends. It is something he does because he wants to help people
learn to finger pick and he views it as a service he provides. They work great and can help alleviate some of the
frustrations that comes with learning to
use plastic finger picks. You'll have a better feel
and more
control while
playing with these customized
picks. Also, it will make them even more "your picks."

about
these customized picks.
Customized Picks Guarantee
If your not
satisfied with the customized picks,
simply return them within 30 days
and we will refund your money or send different picks, whichever you like.
Guaranteed!

If you are new to
finger picking but are serious about learning.... Consider this:
How much would you pay for guitar
lessons? They are $40/hour at our local music store!
A young child can learn the complicated patterns of speech and grammar simply by listening to others talk.
If exposed to two languages, a child can learn to speak both languages -
and without a lick of an accent.
There are cases where some were exposed to up to seven different languages while growing up,
and they
can speak all seven tongues, fluently and all without any accent. Incredible?
Yes it certainly is!
The
mind has an incredible ability to learn simply by listening.
As a "young child" to the art of
finger picking, do not underestimate how much you can learn
simply by listening closely
to the guitar work of
accomplished guitarists who play finger style guitar.
Paul asks,
"Please remember to show your appreciation
for what I have providing free of
charge by purchasing my music CD's along with
the picks. You will most certainly
be happy you bought them because they will help you in your finger picking endeavors."
