Thanks for helping Gravity Guitar Picks get off the ground!!!

Gravity Guitar Picks


Hey there,

This newsletter goes out to everyone who has received a Gravity Pick sample or someone that I have been in contact with about the company in the first 120 days of the official start date. I am sending this as a thank you for trying the picks and spreading the word about them on the web and through word of mouth. The business is doing very well and hopefully will continue to grow. A new website is being built at this time and will feature several tools that will make buying a guitar pick fun and unique. That should be up and running by the end of the year.

The Gear Page, TalkBass, Acoustic Guitar Forum, Seymour Duncan, Sevenstring, and Truefire are the main forums I am on. There are threads about Gravity Picks as well as other pick companies for everyone to read about to find the best pick for them.

There are several new models that have not been released yet. They will probably come out with the new website.

As a thank you for trying the picks and being a part of the beginning process of the company, I am going to offer a 30% discount on any retail order to everyone receiving this newsletter. You will need to type in the words "Newsletter Discount 30%" in the comments section on your PayPal order and I will refund 30% of the entire order. This will be effective immediately until Monday, September 26.

I have never - EVER sent them any email nor have I ever known they exist. I suspect they got my address from TB.

Hi, this is Chris from Gravity Guitar Picks. I sent out this newsletter to everyone that has sent an email to me to my business email address which is [email protected]. I have not and would never send out anything to someone that did not contact me first.

If you received this unexpectedly, I am truly sorry and will do whatever I can to keep you off future newsletters.

Again, I did not harvest, borrow, take, steal or get any email addresses from anywhere other than from my inbox. I do not conduct my business in that manner. There is an unsubscribe at the bottom of the newsletter as well.

I apologize for this and hope you understand where I am coming from.

Chris
