Search for “meteorite guitar pick” on eBay. This video is the making of the Meteorite Guitar Pick called Relic. It has recently gotten some eyebrows raised from bloggers who found it on eBay. They joked around and actually had me rolling! This video is 30-50 hours of planning and work in the crafting of this guitar pick, condensed down to less than 10 minutes. The last minute is a live performance. This guitar pick is made from meteorite material of the Canyon Diablo meteor crater, Arizona, in the United States. This is the first guitar pick made from a US meteorite, and this video is the first one ever posted about making one from meteorite. My first self-crafted meteorite guitar pick. Name: RELIC. Artist: AC TX, USA. Date of completion: 4/27/09. Material/description: iron meteorite sculpture, used as a guitar pick. Drop it on a counter and it rings like a coin in C# (554.37/1108.73 Hz frequencies). Very tough, high tensile strength. Canyon Diablo meteorite contains Lonsdaleite (space diamond) thus making it very hard to machine. (It destroys your tools). Lonsdaleite has a hexagonal crystal structure. It is 58% harder than typical octagonal earth-diamond. Measurements: 1.5 x 1.2 x 3/64ths inches; (3.75 cm x 3 cm x 1.2 mm @ thick end). Weighs 7.4 grams. The Canyon Diablo meteorite is roughly 92% iron, 7% nickel, 1% rare earths.

One word… V-Pick!!!! Killer tone and Much better than a piece of metal on your guitar strings!!!
Pop!!! Goes the String
You still got all your fingers? Not for long I’m thinking.

I change them more frequently than that anyway. This pick is for special occasions, glistening sound, luck, soul and destiny.
That pick will strip weeks off the life of your strings and maybe break them if your not careful.
Hello all! After one year in existence, relic has encountered minimum rust which is normal for “irons”, especially ones treated with acid. I am going to resurface it, and find a better way to seal it. This may bring it’s “tuning” up to “D”.
3:01 – Watch out meteorite incoming!!!
Automatic string breakers, impressive!
impressing !
nicee =)
