Has anyone ever used or even heard of aluminum picks? I made a set just out of curosity and was surprised at the sound, very clear with a sound of their own and needless to say feather light ! I would like to send out a few sets FREE to some of you pickers to see what your opinion is and how they wear, I will send a set to say the first 10 to email me with their address FREE and you can report back to us. Thanks Doyle |

I have done more work since I retired than I did when I was working ! I may have to go back to work in self defense if Debby keeps coming up with honey do's ! Between the pick making we are setting up a pretty nice home studio too, retired the old one, it had worked about as long as I had. and was just about as old ! |

I have a set made from a beautiful chunk of sunken aromatic Cedar I got from ax man if you would would like to upgrade Guys I have got very busy with the auction for the Fire Dept. fund raiser and will be running a little behind on getting all the request for the free aluminum picks out to you so please be patient. Does anyone have any connections with any of the major pick manufactoring co's. ? Maybe they would press out a few thousand for us from the aluminum, it might turn out a big seller for them. |

OK guys I am finally back from two long weeks at another job, I will start trying to answer all the emails. I have about 100 request for the free aluminum picks, some were sent out before I left but I will get around to making you all a set if you bear with me, I must take care of my earlier jewelry orders and such first and then I will get started on the picks again, thank you all for the response. |

I don't know about these aluminum picks, but the silver Texas picks, I had Doyle make me are absolutely fantastic. And every time I look down at the outline of Texas on my finger picks, it takes me back home. God bless you Doyle. |
