Carlos own brand of guitar amplifiers and pickups, originally designed for his own concerts, have received the highest ratings possible from both today's top-of-line guitarists and from the trade-press and have gained a reputation for being "the most natural and musical guitar amplification" available on today's market.

Wegen’s Guitar Picks
Endorsement since 2005
Visit the official website
I'm Michel Wegen, professional model maker, run my own shop and usually work for museums, advertisement agencies, attraction parks, hospitals, et cetera. In my spare time I like to study other people's problems and try to invent solutions. This is a very interesting and enjoyable hobby, and I am often successful in finding new solutions to old problems.
One of these solutions was making picks for gypsy jazz style. And the picks are among the best available for this style worldwide. And what wonderful reviews I received on the Standard model, now called the Gypsyjazzpick. Please click on the comments link at the bottom of the page.
The material I use is sounding very close to tortoise , but it is lasting much longer. The pick has a nice beveled and curved tip, so it makes a difference if you're right- or left-handed. Both sides have grooves for grip, and the thumb side is concaved with grooves.
My standard gypsy picks are 3.5 mm thick, 30 mm long and 26 mm wide. I've improved this pick just a few times for the better, and my customers and I cant think of any more ideas to offer a better gypsyjazzpick. I'm done here.
