Thank you for taking a moment to send us an email. We are open to improving the manufacture, distribution and licensing of these patented music implements. Polite comments, questions and inquiries are welcome.
For anyone who strums or plucks, picks are cars, arcs are trucks.
Arcs effectively solve the slip, drop, hand-strength and control problems of smaller, traditional, dainty music implements. Arcs are bigger, bolder and still designed for manufacture by traditional methods, and should adapt well with newer manufacturing methods like 3dp. Preserving the tradition, the simplicity of use, and simplicity to manufacture is important in introducing these patented arcs for accepting by players and music products manufacturers. The shapes of larger, leverage-enabling arcs will be a contrast and compliment to picks and continue to improve the experience of musicians in the years ahead. Joy, freedom, efficiency, creativity can be made better with this new product-type. Those with dexterity challenges and arthritis will benefit. New technologies and ideas take some time to become a preferred method. We are 100% convinced that arcs offer improvement in ability to hold strongly and control, to prevent slipping and dropping. Arcs will mitigate hand tension, joint pain and empower everyone, including arthritic and dexterity-challenged with more freedom to play. With persistence, the passage of time and continued developments, the arched-design technology of these arcs will benefit the music marketplace and musicians in the years ahead.
INCLUSION NOT DISRUPTION:
We believe in including rather than disrupting. We are for win-win and we want the best for all musicians. We hope that some of the great brands and accessory makers know that we want you to make these arcs ! We are for everyone participating… It’s like trucks and cars again — trucks are offered by many favorite brands. Arched implements produced by existing guitar-builders or pick manufacturers means that you embrace the innovation. Participate with it, please. Your customers like you as their brand! (They’ll love your arcs too.)
These leverage-enabling music implements are protected by patent and shape variations, derivatives of the patent drawings are also protected by copyright. Pick-makers and pick marketers might want to offer all types of implements: Straps, capos, picks and Arcs (Just as many auto companies offer all types of vehicles: cars, SUVs and trucks.)

The increased amount of surface area reveals more of the beauty of materials from which they are made. The aesthetic look of shell, celluloid, ceramics, tone woods and other artistic coatings is appealing. More surface area means more room for custom imprinting of messages, band names, slogans, verses, lyrics and so on. Promotion and marketing can become positive and enduring. Guitar builders with specialized knowledge bases, design skills, skilled wood-working and inlay artisans, CNC and laser machine proficiency, understanding of coatings and finishing techniques may recognize potential -- using material and resources already present -- to brand-build with their own tone-enhancing, innovative accessories. The arcs can ADD tone --beyond the nasal-sound of smaller, traditional picks-- to most guitars. The leverage-enabled arcs offer joy to the experience of those playing.
Less hand-tension.
Better efficiency, better control,
less fumbling, more playing.
Benefit to players of every skill level.
We've seen, held and heard "Just the tip of the pick" until now. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to hearing from you.
ARTIST RELATIONS:
Hello Artist! Arcs technology enables a different experience for you and other musicians you may influence. Arcs affect the overall experience you'll get from playing.
Arcs enable more creativity for performance and more space for custom graphics and branding. You got color, logos, quotes? You may have a preferred brand of picks that could become a manufacturer of arcs. Cars and trucks are sold under the same brand. Picks and arcs could be as well. You are an early adapter.
The players' skills REMAIN the most important influence on the sounds from the instruments! Arcs can reveal more of the instruments' sound-producing potential.
Artists here understand our position, that arched-implement functionality -- while easily more encouraging for beginners -- can take pro-level play into new areas. Arcs have more leverage. The design-science enables arcs to be angled, bent, synchro-struck and scraped into preferred, pro accessories. Artists like you can bring innovation, excitement and creativity. The guitar world wants us to work together - Celluloid pick makers should become celluloid arc makers! Etc. We are for win-win. Our artists are too.
