I have been using Landis fingerpicks for more than 6 months and have found them to be very comfortable. The "death grip" feature really keeps the picks on without constantly readjusting. The sterling silver material produces a nice warm tone and the profile of the pick tang is very user f...

My pair just arrived today and I really really like them. The shape of the blade makes picking significantly more easy and accurate. Up until now i was using Hoffmeyer picks which were really nice but the Landis picks did not require any reshaping. Could not be happier with them. Thank you for the ...

Thank you, Gene! I'm glad they're working well for you and really appreciate the great review! Word of mouth advertising is the most trustworthy, and the only thing my advertising budget can afford lately, so a review like this is priceless to me. Making wide band picks are a bit tricky. It's very i...

I have to share this... I posted these Gospel picks on the Facebook "Dobroholics" page and got a surprise compliment from my favorite dobro player. The blue check mark is a Facebook verification that it's the actual public figure known as Jerry Douglas. My comment "You made my day&quo...

The first in our newly retooled line of superior quality fingerpicks. By popular demand, weâ€™ve created a model for our friends who play Gospel. Great for any instrument requiring fingerpicks. These sterling silver picks feature our Patent Pending gripping teeth that will keep them secure even when...

I carved a new die to produce these so they'd have a consistent thickness and eliminate a lot of trim work. I've also blunted the end of the band to make it a more comfortable fit. It's become my favorite thumb pick for steel and b@%&0 These Sterling Silver picks delver great tone and comfort. T...

I received my picks 2 days earlier than expected and I like everything about them, especially the tone. I never thought I would invest in silver but I'm glad I did.

Edward, I'm glad they're working out for you! Thank you for the post!

Any reason that you don't ship to the UK? I don't think anything has changes since the last 2 sets of finger picks you shippeed to me with no problems? Recent changes have made it so we have to fill out forms and collect taxes for Her Majesty. So we've been having our friends in UK supply addresses...

If you HAD to market them, Ron... How much? Okay, your question caused me to rethink this. I just didn't think there would be much market, but I'm now so convinced about the tone, I think I'd be doing the music community an injustice by not making them available. I've always maintained that there i...

We filmed a tone comparison for the Landis Studios YouTube channel that will be posted in a few days. I was able to give them a workout on the banjo. A noticeable improvement in clarity and warmth was heard by everyone in the room. Whether that will transfer through our less-than-optimal recording e...

NFS... Probably the worldâ€™s first and only set of solid gold fingerpicks. They were a special commission to match a 1927 Gibson Bella Voce Banjo. I had to test drive them and I can say they are slightly better than my sterling silver picks. Reduced pick noise and with more clarity. I probably won'...

We now have our thumb picks in production! Itâ€™s taken several months to engrave the dies and develop the tooling to produce these sterling silver thumb picks on our presses and rolling mills. Designed to compliment our popular "Shield" design, these can be personalized with a short name ...

I edited the first post and took out the sentence about longer blades. I designed them 1/16" longer, but for some reason, the digital art got scaled down slightly and the blades are not any longer than before. On another note, I'm also working on this new style of thumb pick. I have these few t...

I would love to try a pair if you have a try them program. would gladly pay shipping both ways to try a sample pair before ordering We have money back guarantee. Try them and if there's anything about them that's not right for you, I'll be happy to modify them by altering the shape of the blade, sh...

Hi Ron, Is the top picture in your post the "Classic" blade shape and the 2nd picture with the more spoon shaped blade the "Landis" blade shape? I get the impression from a previous thread that steel players tend to prefer the classic shape after trying both. Has that been your ...

We've just listed our new 'Pickin'it Basket" picks on our website. These are less time consuming than our premium grade picks so we can offer them for less. They still have the Patent Pending "Death Grip" liner teeth to prevent slipping and still deliver the great tone that sterling s...
