The V-Pick Gripping Phenomenon !!!
It is truely amazing!
    There are a lot of good guitar picks out there on the market today.  Picks that sound good and play well.  However, they all seem to suffer from one thing that has always really bothered me.  They slip out of your fingertips when you become sweaty.  I hate this!  One of my favorite picks that I played for years would actually squirt out of my fingers on stage when I got sweaty hands.  If I did not lose them, I would at least have to keep readjusting the direction of the point of the pick so it would be in the correct attack position. 

     Well, that problem is over, my friend!  There is something that happens when you play a V-Pick that I cannot explain, but I have demonstrated thousands of times.  When your hands get sweaty, they seem to grip your skin even more than with dry hands.  You do not have to keep readjusting the point direction either.  Really, when you are playing a V-Pick, you don't think about your pick at all most of the time.  This is a wonderfull thing in my book because  then you c an channel your energy into making music and not thinking about your gear.  Once you get into the correct V-Pick FOR YOU, the pick will become part of your hand and fingers, part of your art and a large part of your sound as well. 

     I can talk all I want about this, but nothing tells the story better than a picture.  I was with world renowned hand model and guitarist extraordinaire, John Dean today.  I had just handed him a bunch of V-Pick and he was holding them while driving down the street.  At one point he opened up his hand and said "Hey Vinn, try to do this with brand X."  He then opened up his hand and all of the V-Picks he was holding were sticking to his hand.  We were riding down the street and the vibration of the vehicle did not dislodge them at all.  Not one pick dropped off!  I had to take a picture of this for you all.  We took one of the pictures up against a white van and the other against a stucco wall so you could tell his hand was not laying flat.  Check it out!!!
So there you have it my friend.  It is another wonder of the world!  Just one more reason YOU should be playing V-Picks.
