Announcement
We make guitar picks from Tagua Nut (otherwise known at Vegetable Ivory). These picks have superior attack, control and wear down slowly without chipping or scraping.

5 out of 5 starsOne of my favorite picks. I ordered a bunch of different types of picks from different materials and wasn't really expecting anything from these tagua picks, but these turned out to be one of the best of the bunch. I've given one to my bass playing friend and it's his goto now.

5 out of 5 starsPretty good picks, fast shipping, excellent quality and attention to detail. Worth the $ for sure. Tagua is certainly a very slippery material so the grip is definitely necessary. I would say it could be even more aggressive to aid in not losing grip, but just my 2 cents.

5 out of 5 starsIncredible quality! First truly new wrinkle on the classic Jazz III in a lonnng time. Howling Monkey is a company to watch in the boutique plectrum space. Highly recommended!

2 out of 5 starsQuality of the item... mmmmmhhhh... definitely bulky. I have paid 7 dollars for ONE pick!!! I thought that THAT ONE was meaning one bag with multiple items inside! Who paid 7dollars for one pressed piece of plastic??? No seriously people the ones making our lives harder are just US! No, to me it is not ok to sell a piece of pressed plastic for SEVEN dollars that it means 9.96 CAD... you got to be kidding me! Super stiff, pretty bulky, nothing to compare to a lot of other jazz iii I have purchased and the others come in set of four or five pieces! Not recommended AT ALL!!! If I could go back in time and let myself know that 1 is for one pick and not a bag of four or five I wouldn't pay so much! Disappointed!

Sorry you don't like the picks, and sorry for the late reply here, I don't remember seeing this review come through. For clarity of anyone else reading, it's very clear that there is only one pick per listing. 2nd, our picks are FAR from pressed plastic. They're made from a nut called tagua which grows in Ecuador and Colombia. We make these by hand (with some help of technology on the front end), so they're not just junk plastic. 3rd, thick picks aren't for everyone. It's very clear in our listings as well, that they are 2.2+mm. Some people like it, some people don't. But those who like thick picks like them. Sorry you were disappointed, but it's clear you didn't read any of the description of the listing before purchasing.
