A-Mac, thanks for your post, but that cannot happen. But that isn't because of us.

DuPont, who makes the brown material, sells it only as finished stock shapes. You cannot buy the resin and roll your own. You must buy either sheets or rods of this stuff and CNC it out of those shapes. No way around it.

This is the same across the entire plastics industry. All high-end thermoplastics (aka "engineering plastics") come only in stock shapes from ALL the companies that sell such products. You must machine your product from those solid shapes.

Bummer, I know. Such is the fun in the plastics biz.

This pick is as wonderful as the rest of the gear, for sure!

Been a lot of fun sharing these vids with you folks. Thanks Again, Maury.

In these videos Maury is playing our .75 mm large triangle brown series. This is the same material Blue Chip uses, but we go much thinner.

thanks,
scott memmer

LOVE this pick!

Thanks, Maury. Beautiful playing.

Most folks still seem to be unaware that our brown series models are made from the identical material Blue Chip uses. The difference? We go much thinner. The model Maury is playing here is our clt-75, which is a standard large triangle at .75 mm thickness. This is one of our top selling models. (FYI, BC stops at 1.0 mm thickness in this shape.)

Thanks Again, My Friend,
Scott

Thanks, Maury. Your OM sounds amazing.

But wait - there's more! 👍

Wow, cool, thanks so much, Maury.

So what is an Outlaw Martin? Is that standard dread size.

Thank You!
Scott

Scott, it's a Custom Shop D-18 (yes, standard size) with hide glue, VTS Adi top, and Brazilian headplate. Full specs are here:

It's my pleasure. Yes sir, standard D. The CS-Outlaw-17 is a guitar that "breaks the rules" Martin has in place, regarding the use of certain materials. For the most part, they force you to "go authentic" to get some of these specs... hence the Outlaw moniker. It's a really nice guitar. :guitar:

Ted & Maury:

Thanks for your data on this model. Very interesting combination of features.

Take care, gents.

Happy to chime in, Scott. ;)

My pleasure. I just LOVE this pick.

Maury, if you help us any more I'm gonna have to cut you in on some of the profits -- if there were any lol.

Thanks!
Scott
