Andy,
I got my picks in the mail today. That was fast shipping!
I really like the picks and I want to thank you for filling my unusual order request (one red, one black).

Now comes the pain of bending them to fit. My normal picks took about 3 years to get bent just right.

Thank you for providing a quality product at a more than fair price. Last time I bought National picks, they were $6.00 a set. By the time you coated them and mailed them ($1.21) you made about $0.79.

Good luck to you and look for a PM soon about some other ideas I have for you.

Best,
Justin

I had the pleasure of driving Norm and the guys from Lake Charles back to Bakersfield a year or two ago when their bus quit on them.
Please tell Norm that visiting with him over those few days is a memory I will always treasure. He really is one of those "good guys".

Just got a couple sets of these awesome picks. One set for banjo and one for the PSG. Really fast shipping. And what a difference. Once I get them bent properly they may become my most closely guarded piece of gear! What a great idea. Thanks Andy

Great product, just got my picks today and not only do they stay in place, there're very comfortable and seem to mark the end of my cuticle problems! Not to forget that because they have a good gauge (0.25), they sound great. What else can you ask for???

Thanks for this great item, Andy.

As fond as I have been of my very old Nationals, I am so proud to have a pair that Andy presented to me recently at a steel show here in Mississippi. No more slippage what-so-ever. Thanks, Andy. Hope to see you soon.
