... Those years of experiments taught me a simple truth: the tools we use shape the way we play — and the way we feel while playing. I didn’t want to fight the pick anymore. I wanted something that felt like an extension of my hand, not a foreign object between me and the strings. That’s when I started developing my own thumb pick designs — which eventually evolved into what is now LUHA Picks.
