Well, the move from Luxembourg to Scotland is now almost complete. My computer is back up, the broadband is working and, perhaps most importantly, the Tortis picks are now out of the chaotic mess of boxes and can now be sent out to you, my eager customers! Once again, my humble apologies for the disruption.

Enquiries from retailers are welcome. Please email for pricelist. Minimum order applies.
Your New Tortis pick is very similar to real tortoise-shell picks and so must be treated as such. Store your pick in your guitar's pick compartment. DO NOT store it in your wallet or carry it around with you in your pocket. If you also carry coins, keys, etc. in there, your pick will get scratched and may break. In your wallet, it is doomed to failure. The picks are brittle and if flexed, will most likely break.
Also, don't let your pick go through the washer and/or dryer in one of your pockets (see above warning). The material is hygroscopic (absorbs water) and, as such, it will most likely deform if allowed to soak in water.
With proper use as a guitar pick only (not a screwdriver, scraper, knife, etc.) it will likely last you a lifetime.
Be kind to your New Tortis pick!
