Hi Jameel, Any clue as to exactly what they're talking about when they say: "It can be considered cultured tortoise shell since it is actually 'grown'
over a long period of time."? I wonder what they start with and how they culture and grow it, and whether genetic engineering is involved?

Just ordered some so might subject them to a bit of lab analysis
seriously tho, it's an intriguing description, no?
Spose I won't mind if they surreptitiously tissue-amalgamate in some symbiotic fashion, as long as they sound good!

Glad you like them, Mikeyzee,
I'm thinking of making some rishas out of Delrin harpsichord plectrum strip and celluloid pickguard sheet. I'll probably be ordering the stuff this
week.
Take care.

When to expect picks
Hi Jameel, I ordered 3 blank picks from you, just wondering when I might expect them. Send me an U2U message.
