GMI - Guitar And Music Institute Guitar Podcasts

Paul Holcomb and his new concept for guitar pick players - LEAP the Ergonomic Guitar Pick. When Paul Holcomb decided to revisit guitar playing he was frustrated in part by using a plectrum. With a background in design, Paul decided it was time to do something about it and the LEAP concept was born. Almost space aged in design, Paul talks about the development of this new concept and developing it for a new generation of guitar players.
