Default Cactus Guitar Picks

Hi,
I am in the UK, I seem to have problems getting hold of Cactus Guitar picks.
Are they still going. I'm on my last one and it is the best one for sticking to my fingers (has a great grip)

Thanks Alan

Their website is still active and appears to have current information. Try emailing them, I found this address on their site.

I have carpal tunnel in both hands resulting in numbness of the fingertips. I've got two different gauges of Cactus picks and they're decent to grip but I find I can hold on to a Charmed Life Brown (Vespel), a Blue Chip Brown (Vespel) or a Guitar Moose Sticky Grip Classic pick better than I can a Cactus pick.

Thanks for getting back to me guys.
I haven't heard from Cactus picks as yet. I have emailed Guitar Moose to see if they will ship to UK

Many Thanks
Alan

If you can't find them, you may want to try The original Cat's Tongue Grip Brain Picks. I'm not sure who makes them but if you google the name, they are sold on Amazon, at Long and McQuade in Canada, etc. They appear to be very similar to Cactus picks.
