I was looking on the Japanese Ibanez website, and I noticed several guitar pick designs/materials/colors that are not sold here in the United States.

The one I am most interested is:
--Basic Color Series--
Polyacetal PA14H-BK (1.0 mm), but the metallic colors are pretty nice too.

I loooooooove the polyacetal material the Steve Vai signature picks are made of, but prefer the pointed tips of the Paul Gilbert models. I have tried the Clayton polyacetals, but the formula/feel just isn't the same.

Are there any sources to order these? I cannot find a US dealer at all. :-(

Powerslave, you would have to contact Ibanez USA in Bensalem PA to see if they would special order them for you. Your local Ibanez dealer can't buy direct from Japan, they go through Ibanez USA.

I suspected as much. You'd figure in today's world of 24 hr wired access, I could find a dealer somewhere on the face of the Earth that carries them.
But then, appearances are deceiving ;-)

I should've made a sidetrip to Bensalem when I drove to PA last month to see Satch!
