Where can I get them? I'm eager to try out some new picks, especially if I can find some of a 1mm-3mm gauge . Is it possible to buy them at music stores or is it absolutely necessary to buy them online? :shock:

Now THATS a downer. Springfield is on the other side of the state. I guess next time I visit my friend there I'll see if I can't pick up some v-picks. :D

How about Owensboro, Kentucky :?:

You should check out the location page.

I'm not in a real rush to get one. Just the next time I go to Springfield will be enough. Thank you for the suggestion though. :)

Just curious- why don't you want to get them online? I ordered mine and got them in a few days as well. Great picks, and great service.

That's how I got mine - over the net. Great service from a little company.

I think it was $3 shipping. Considering gas prices, cheaper than driving anywhere. I bought the large rounded and medium rounded. I thought I would use the medium more, because that is the size that I've been using for years, but the large rounded one has made it's way into my hands a lot the last couple of weeks.

I did the same thing , bought large and medium, but I really like the large rounded the best. I've never used a large pick before these, but I'm sticking with them now! :wink:

I agree that your best bet is to order online (I think they use paypal). If you're not sure about what to order, I would recommend the "fab four". That's what I got and I actually really like all four picks, even though they are all different.

Yeah same here - I got the fab four, plus the screamer- only one I'm not crazy about is the small jazz pick.

I've bought my V-picks online, though I wish there was a store nearby so I could try out a few of the different styles of picks, because I had to buy a few different styles to try out, and would have preferred to spend my money on the picks I ended up liking. I really like the Shredders and the Medium Pointed, and am trying to figure out if I like one better, or both the same, before I stock up on them....However, other than maybe not knowing which style to get, have no fear ordering from Vinni and V-picks, because the are very professional and courteous. In fact, if you have questions about which V-pick might be the right one for you, contact Vinni as he is very helpful.

Awsome picks, I ordered the Fab Four & a Nite Glo Screamer.
They have a very nice quality & feel, I recieved mine immediately along with
very quick email responses from Vinni & Mrs. V plus an extra couple free
picks that Vinni thought I might like...
Turns out my favorite pick of them all is 1 of the one's Vinnie included for free.
I already have some reveiws written up & I will be posting them very soon.
Good people with a great product in my opinion.

You're right Bowlfreshener, Vinny is cool . I always played a thin pointed pick but I went with his reccomendation and now I won't play anything but the V-Pick large rounded. They are good people. I have to thank Chet for turning me on to them! 8) ( I wish they had a spell checker on this site as I'm terrible at spelling) :(
