Finger picks

Postby saddletramp » Mon Jun 04, 2012 6:42 pm

Can anybody recommend where to buy finger picks in the UK? I can get hold of Dunlops fairly easily in my local music store, but I'd like to try some different makes that don't have the big wraparound lugs. Any suggestions?

I bought a set of Perfect Touch ( available from Hobro music ) at the 2008 St Louis Convention and though I still have my Dunlops as spares I've used them ever since for both steel and dobro. No more Flying Picks. IMHO the best picks ever.
Zumsteel Encore 3+5, Mooer Red Truck, Goodrich Match-Bro, Tech 21 Para Driver, Roland Cube 30x, Guvnor dobro, '89 Fender Squier, '84 Tokai Breezysound Tele, and several accoustic guitars. COPD and bad back!
