Cobalt Nick Picks at Banjo Teacher.com

Nick Picks have arrived!

Cobalt coated special designed custom picks designed for solid tone, comfort, and speed. Available only at BanjoTeacher.com, Bob Perry custom made these picks for me by my specifications. They fit back further on your finger like I requested for more comfort and power. The no hole design avoids those finger through the hole sores and more importantly gives the pick more mass for a thicker, fatter tone. These picks sound great, they're comfortable and the cobalt coating does what it says it does. The coating cuts string noise to nill and the picks glide over the strings. Bob also roughens up the inside of the pick so it grips better. I've been playing a long time, these picks are a break through.

When pickers scoff at spending more than a couple of bucks for picks I take exception to that. Where does the tone start??? How can someone invest so much time, money, practice and set-up work on their banjo without listening to the tone of different picks, and going for the best. Thick full tone, no string scratch, a better grip, how comfortable the pick feels on your finger, how the pick responds, these are all important factors! They certainly are to me. These picks work great and I think you'll agree that they're better than what you're using now.

Note: The cobalt coating does wear off eventually depending on the amount of use. Nick Picks can be recoated for 4.00 by sending them to Bob Perry, the manufacturer. His contact information is on the pick box. The Picks still sound and play good even if the coating has worn off too.

The picks have money back satisfaction guarantee too. If you don't like just send them back for a full refund. No questions asked.

...... I really like the way they set further back on the finger. I take lessons on Friday and after my instructor heard me play with the new "Nick Picks",,, he told me to throw my old picks ( Dunlop ) away. ha

...... Oh man, when they arrived and I slipped them on, they were as snug as a bug on a rug. I thought I died and went to heaven. I could hardly tell I had them on. They were everything, and a little more, then you said. Just as a beginner, the comfort alone made them worth every penny.
Happy picking, Tim Dellinger

.....Hi Nick, this is another order for 2 more sets of your Kick Ass picks.. I am impressed with their tone and the increased finger dexterity I have using your picks. I am going to place one set with each of my 4 banjos.

.......Just wanted to let you know that I got my new Nick Picks. Thanks for carrying such a nice product.

......Tried your nic picks from a guy I was teaching banjo today. I thought they were great and had to get some. I\'ll be be showing these off, I think they are fantasic. Founder of Banjo Gazette and British Bluegrass News

.......The picks and pick pocket have just arrived, nice and comfortable and my tone has improved.

.....Hi Ross, I got the new ones. I love 'em!

.....They are comfy, secure, and solid -- Thanks.


..........Thank you for sending me the two Nick Picks you kindly offered to help me overcome a problem, I am still experimenting but so far they've enabled me to practice with more comfort and clearer tone than I have managed previously. Your help and kindness is appreciated and has reinforced my respect for you and the care you show your customers. Thanks again.

........Just got my Nick Picks and I must say they are a lot more comfortable to wear and the tone is great! I like how you have only one of the Nick Picks marked with an "N" I always have to try on my picks to find the right one for each finger that I sized Now I know that the one marked "N" is my middle finger pick!

........I think that they were definitely worth the price. My fingers are small and so I had to squeeze the picks down to size for a good fit, but after that I find them to be greatly beneficial to my picking enjoyment. Great product!

Nick Picks, kick ass tone and comfort.

22.95 Sorry but the price went up a buck last year. My price has gone up from the person who makes them 5.00 since I first came out with them. Custom picks can cost a lot to make. I do think you'll like them though and that they'll be worth it to you. Ross N


Buy these picks with the cobalt coating! You won't be sorry. I'm extremely pleased with this new innovation...Ross N

 

Here's the hype, but they don't need it. I know you'll be happy with them.

A finish that makes other picks obsolete!
NASA has been using it for years in high-tech machinery, where expense was no object.
Used on metals to reduce friction and wear longer. End Result Picks do not drag or squeak on the strings!
Less drag means faster playing & cleaner sounding!

Virtually wear resistant and they really do make a difference.

Pick Pocket Banjo Pick Pouch
THE BEST PICK HOLDER OUT THERE

This brand new pick pouch for holding you banjo thumb and finger picks is the best one I've seen yet. It's big enough to not have to cram you fingerpicks in it and it has the little metal hinges that keep in rigid when you open and close it. It's a nice accessory like a wallet or a key case.

Seriously, this is a great pick pouch, I use it and I really like it.

Shark Tooth Picks

The most comfortable and multi-functional thumb-picks on the planet!

 

.Quote from Ross Nickerson.....This is the most comfortable thumbpick I've ever used. They sound good and don't come loose as you might suspect. This is a great product that could be used in any situation. I like to use them especially when I'm practicing.

The price for the picks went up .95 cents, sorry. The manufacturer added some features including an extra pic and strap and raised the wholesale price 1.00. The price for the picks with the pouch is still the same.

....This is my 3rd purchase. I love this product and will be ordering whenever I have extra cash just to stock up on them. These two how ever are for my brother for Christmas. He\'s visiting for Christmas and I\'d love to turn him on to these.
