Ivory guitar pick

[Se7en]

Damn anyone know a source to get one real ivory pick ?

You just KNOW I am going to say Google it don't you? I did. Found several places you can get them or get blanks and make your own. The ivory however is either walrus tusk or prehistoric wooly mammoth tusk. There is a law prohibiting trading in ivory from such sources as elephant.


Crap. Forgot to post the Google link before closed the browser window. Sorry.

Ah yes I too have seen faux ivory. I own a real ivory cigarette tip. Yes that's right. I want the real deal no faux.
Edit, no one mentioned money ie trade. "Want". Well I will pick up a mammoth pick for now.

I have some Ivory soap.

Walrus tusk and wooly mammoth tusks ARE REAL IVORY. When I said about the law prohibiting TRADE in elephant ivory I was talking about TRADE as in BUSINESS. Elephant ivory cannot be bought or sold or traded for goods etc.

And you're a foe of faux fo' what reason?

Just use a Dunlop Tortex. If you can't pick with one, no tusk will help you.

Ivory is ivory is ivory. You asked for ivory. You did not ask for elephant ivory. Bad juju trying to get that. Rates right up there with gorilla palms and rhino horns.

If you want a pick made from the tusk if a slaughtered endangered species, my opinion of you just hit rock bottom.

The actual chemical composition is the same whether it be from elephant,walrus, narwhal, mammoth or even a pig's tooth. :blink: I had to look that one up but it's true. :laugh: The chemical composition of dentene, which is what ivory is, is the same for any mammal.

Shh no one has to know the pick is mammoth and not elephant tusk. Everyone wins.
