Picks are fairly comfortable. I have trouble with getting string between pick and finger. (probably something I am doing wrong). They need to be heavier gauge material. I would prefer .025. Don't seem like I can dig in as hard. |

Interesting design and by far the most comfortable pick's I’ve ever worn. My only problem with them is that they only come in 0.020, which sounds a bit thin to me. If they made them in 0.025 they'd never leave my fingers |

Very nice, well designed capo. It's very easy to use - just slip over the strings, flip the lever, and you're good to go. The capo is heavy enough to provide great tone, yet small enough to put on, remove, and store easily. I much prefer it over my Flux/Scheerhorn capo, but the tone isn't quite as nice as my Bradley. However, it's close enough to make it my main capo. |

This is my favorite bar, even over my Tipton RT-1 and chrome-plated Bradley bar. Like you can imagine, the tone from a stainless steel bar may not be as "warm" as a chrome-plated one, but this one sounds great anyway. Like my other Bradley bar, it was custom made for my hands, so it fits great and is very comfortable to play with. Elmer sandblasts these bars, which really helps when playing with sweaty hands. On top of that, the heat treatment makes these bars just about indestructible - you can't wear them out like regular stainless steel bars. |

I own two of Bobby's straps and now I wouldn't use anything else. The workmanship and effort that Bobby puts into his straps is unequaled in my opinion. Since the straps are so wide, they don't cut into your shoulder as some do after playing for awhile. They are very comfortable, and the newer swivel versions allow for a wide range of movement for your picking arm. They truly are a work of art and highly recommended. For an example of Bobby's work, please check the Dale Earnhardt Tribute strap in my photo album. |

This is the best capo out there in my opinion. No tone death at all. It is very heavy, solid, and easy to use. Aside from the chrome-plated brass body effectively acting as a new bar on whichever fret you place it on, it makes it look classy as well. Like almost any other capo that "hovers" above the strings, it takes some practice to place it accurately, especially if you're in a hurry. |

This bar is very similar to the Tipton RT-1 in dimensions and shape. However, Mr. Bradley could make you any length, weight, or height that suited you. He was kind enough to send me a custom shortened bar to fit my short fingers. Like any other chrome-plated bar, it offers a slightly warmer, clearer sound than a stainless steel bar. Unlike most other chrome-plated bars though, I've heard that Elmer plates his bars with ten times the chrome than anyone else. If this is true, it would be almost impossible to wear through in a lifetime of playing. Even if you were able, Mr. Bradley guarantees his chrome bars against this and replaces them for free. |
