JF finger picks are from Jeff Newman.
I use these picks and you can get them from Fran.

I got mine from wanda, (billy coopers music) I was actually going to post a topic on them I am very impressed with them and the bend is right on the money, I used to over strick the 2nd string and hit the 1st string with my finger nail now these picks to me has help to curb that, I think very highly of them and with jeff gone I don't know how this could effect the supply hopefully not, also I got my new carter d10 I will be posting it soon and that with these new picks is awsome. thanks

Could you post a picture of the Jeff Newman picks ?

This is a neat site on National picks:

But, they start to look pretty similar if you look too long.

Danny, they're a copy of the old BJ's Diamond Rings designed by Jeff and Buddy years ago. The only difference is they are not chromed. Very good picks I think.

John if your asking me to post a picture of jeff newman picks I don't have the means right now however I don't think a picture could do them justice it is something that you have to try out, I used to use dunlops for comfort but awhile ago I switched to JF picks and I love 'em there only $5 so they are priced high but if one doesn't like them you aren't out alot. thanks

Tried a set out today and must say that they are excellent picks. Played 4hr's solid and my fingers didn't turn to ground meat.
I have four sets all together + the set I used today.

I have been using Jeffs picks for about 24 years and they are the best. Only on my 3rd set - they are very durable and I use them till they completely wear out. I play a lot so they get plenty of work...they're a good fit and last forever!
