The Plectrum - how to make a custom Kirinite guitar pick by hand

Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC... and Ben’s home workshop where he is making custom Guitar Picks using some unusual materials. This episode is a mini-project where Ben is making a custom guitar pick by hand in a very hard-wearing and cool-looking acrylic compound called Kirinite. You can do this too. Get comfortable, make sure you have your coffee, sit back, and enjoy.
