chuggmiester Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 does anyone know where i can get hold of plectrums with a cut out (to assist grip )or can you get punchs to create holes as my grip is failing due to me being an old fart (no its arthiritus ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Not sure if you've thought of trying a 'finger-pick' as per the Jim Dunlop tortie ones that used to wrap around your thumb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuggmiester Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 ive tried those but ive got big fat fingers and struggled to find the right size that fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 There are these. http://swisspicks.com/ Not sure if they have a UK distributor though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andytre Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Depending on thickness i use a standard paper holepunch to put holes in mine, ive also used a 8mm drill bit on thicker ones. Does a good job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudewheresmybass Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I use a Stanley knife to score the surface of the tortex picks I use from time to time, and it gives a really secure feeling. a little trick I learned from dimebag 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does a good job Yup, same for me. Quite a heavy-duty hole punch though, as cheap ones will bend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
