Hey!
What's new?
Guitar Pick Showdowns

So what is it about Precision Picks that makes them so much more... precise? When I started designing these, I had one goal in mind, to create a tool that helped players achieve the highest level of precision possible. The whole body delivers predictability through a firm feel and uncompromising grip, whilst the sharp point delivers predictability.
Recently we were lucky enough to be featured in two round-ups on picks, which I feel really put a point on this, and so I wanted to share them below. Both these guys are really true to their word and it's worth noting that neither were paid for, so I am truly grateful for the inclusion and kind words.
Jamie Oldfield - What pick do you use? | Ola Englund - Pick Intervention 2 |

Autumn and Winter Guitar Shows
After our first foray into Europe with Guitarshow.IT, we're absolutely heading back to the continent! I’m honoured to say Dan's Guitar Store will have a stand at Guitar Summit 2025 in Mannheim. This is probably the biggest guitar show next to NAMM! If you're planning on attending, drop us a message, and we will see you there!
We are also going to be attending all the usual UK guitar shows, starting in September, so please check the events calendar to find the show nearest to you, and we'll see you there!
Online Store Updates - Paypal
Since we increased our focus on the store last month, we've added Paypal back as a payment option! Don't forget, If you love our picks and want to place bigger orders or mix and match, our store is the best place to go. We offer a loyalty scheme, free postage on orders over a certain amount, and multi-buy discounts.
