F-1 ergonomic guitar picks

Posted by Jon in • Guitar Accessories

F1 Picks
Check out this crazy guitar pick! The F-1 Pick is ergonomically designed to stick to your finger so that you can loosen your grip and therefore relaxing your hand, arm and neck, reducing fatigue and “Repetitive Stress Injury”.  “This improves control, increases speed, accuracy and promotes a fluid playing style. “The pick seems to float in your hand”, and is almost impossible to drop.“ - a bold statement, I’m sure it is possible to drop! From the photo on the left you probably have no idea what is going on so I suggest you check out this YouTube video of someone holding the pick, no wait they’re not holding it, it is magically sticking to his finger! *insert eerie ghost noises*

But wait… there’s more! What is better than 1 pick? Surely it would be 2 picks stuck together with an ergonomic grip glued to it? You need the FX2 guitar pick!.

But seriously though what could be better than 2 picks, I mean where do you go from there?  surely nothing could be better than 2 picks stuck together right? WRONG! You need 3 picks stuck together with an ergonomic grip glued on because like Gillette like us to think more is better and they are only $7 each!

Right bugger this I’m off to stick 4 picks together and make them vibrate, I shall call it the MACH 4 TURBO POWER PICK!

You realise as soon as you put 4 together someone will just put together 5, make them vibrate, feed the dog and do the dishes.

But seriously, who holds a pick like that anyway. I hold my pick between my thumb and on the top knuckle of my index finger.

How did it stick to one finger?!?
What’s the sound of one finger holding a plectrum?

I just buy good picks I like (Snarling Dogs Cat Tongues and Dunlop Jazz IIIs). Whatever works for you is appropriate.

Interesting one but I will just stick to my old picks that I have a specific taste for. I don’t like all, I like to feel them when playing.

Snarling Dogs Cat Tongues?! is that a real brand! Damn I have to look that one up smile

I’m glad to see these getting some coverage because they are in fact quite useful. While they’re not for everyone, they do help the picking hand relax which has a lot of potential benefits. I wrote a long term review of them back in August of this year after playing them for several months - Review of Big Rock Guitar Pick.
