Howdy, Folks, this is my favorite pick of everything we make! It is just astounding. 

 

If I had to choose one model from everything we make, this would be it. I reach for it first every time. Man, do I love this thing -- and so do hundreds and hundreds of our customers through the years. There's nothing else like it on the market. We're the only ones who make anything remotely like this pick. 

 

Our thin casein models are the finest teardrop in the industry. If you're into bringing out the best wooden tone your instrument can produce in a recording studio, you'll never find a better pick. This is the closest legal alternative to genuine tortoise you will find in the entire pick industry -- I'll stake my reputation on it. 

 

Everyone says their picks "sound like tortoise shell," but most of our competitors have never even played them. Here's the deal.. I bought my first TS picks from McCabe's Guitars in 1977, right after the international CITES treaty was signed by 150 nations and McCabe's was clearing out their inventory. Check it out: I've been playing TS picks longer than most of my competitors have been alive. I know what a TS sounds and feels like -- I know it like my own heartbeat. And NO pick captures it better than this little guy, and his blue big brother. 

 

Here's a trippy thing to consider, folks. Casein is make from a Mammalian protein: tortoise shell is made from a Reptilian protein. If one considers evolution, one could reach a reasonable conclusion that these two natural materials have a similar molecular structure. 

 

Our thin casein models are (still) mostly fabricated mostly by hand -- they are a true artisan product. NO ONE does this kind of work other than CLP. It is painstaking, precise, meticulous and labor-intensive. As such, we ask you to please allow 3-4 weeks to build these. It may sound counter-intuitive, but thinner picks require more work and precision than thicker picks. 

 

As always, this pick comes with FREE SHIPPING to your door.

 

Thanks for looking,

Scott
