Fitting and use :

1. The AMP-12 plastic pick can be custom-made: place the pick securely over the finger, under the nail, determine the desired length, and cut. Then use nippers and a fine file to smooth the edges for a comfortable fit.
2. Adjust the curve to the skin under the nail: sharpen the back of the pick surface so the contact surface fits better against the nail area. This increases grip and prevents slippage during quick passes.
3. If present, remove the pressure band completely or partially to adjust the tension. Smooth any sharp edges for extra comfort, and if there is a pressure band, you can bend it inward to create additional tension above the nail.

Why choose the AMP-12? The user experience says it all: direct response, minimal maintenance, and a lick that adapts to your playing style. Whether you want to control fast picking, tight arpeggios, or dynamic shifts, this set offers the flexibility without compromising your grip. Ideal for rehearsals at home, on tour, or in the studio where every note counts.
