Blue Chip Thumbpick (Reso-1 and J.D. Crowe styles)
A $40 thumbpick? Rob says: "Yes, they are expensive, but they are great! I'm using the Reso-1M [pictured at left]. I've been playing mine for weeks and there is not a scuff on it. In the past, I would wear out a pick after about 2 sets of music." Return policy: If you don't like this pick, return it in like-new condition for a full refund, minus shipping.
Description: A slightly thicker blade design as compared to Blue Chip banjo picks to withstand the more strenuous use on a dobro. Constructed using a custom designed stainless steel band and a 60/1000 of an inch(1.50mm) thick BlueChip pick. laser etched, professionally machined, and hand beveled to create the best thumb pick available. Sizes compare to a standard medium or large thumb pick of any brand. The J.D. Crowe model reso-pick has a slightly shorter point. For more info, click on the Blue Chip links at left.
Price: $40 Both models available in Medium & Large.

Walworth Capo
What Rob says about this capo: "I have really been enjoying using this capo. Goes on easily and sounds great! The other thing I like about it is that it easily attaches to the strings behind the nut when not in use. That way, it is close by when I need it. Bruce Walworth is a retired engineer who designed this capo at the request of his wife, who is a dobro player. I think he's come up with a winner!"
Price: $50
