I have been mainly using [...]

Ray Powers

Products Used: Black Delrin signature custom (ultra thin).

You can’t afford to be second-guessing your grip, durability or quality. Clayton Custom picks give you that reassurance. The only time you’ll be letting go of your pick is when you’re flipping it to one of your adoring fans [...]
