About

At GMW Pick™, precision and design come first.

Our story began in Norway in 2005, when a dedicated craftsman my father in law set out to create a guitar pick with better grip and control than anything available at the time.
He spent years refining his custom mold, testing each curve, bevel, and grip texture until the pick felt stable, comfortable, and reliable in every playing situation.

This work became the foundation of the Cactus Pick™, a non-slip plectrum shaped with a texture inspired by nature’s most effective grip patterns.

Today, the picks are still produced in Norway using his original mold and refined techniques, ensuring consistent quality and precise craftsmanship.
From the Netherlands, we handle development, packaging, and distribution bringing the Cactus Pick™ to guitarists around the world.

In 2024, my brother and I decided to revive and continue this family project, building on the craftsmanship that began nearly two decades ago. Together, we’re committed to taking the Cactus Pick™ to the next level while staying true to its original purpose.

Every GMW Pick™ is engineered for players who value control, tone, and durability from beginners to professionals on stage.

Our goal is simple:
To create a pick that becomes a natural extension of your playing, performing reliably every time you pick up your instrument.
