Abstract

A multi-plectrum sleeve system includes a multi-plectrum sleeve, having a body extending from a first side to a second side; a first slot extending inwardly into the body; a second slot extending inwardly into the body; a first plectrum removably inserted into the first slot; and a second plectrum removably inserted into the second slot; the multi-plectrum sleeve provides for easy transitioning between the first plectrum and the second plectrum.

Claims (16)

1. A multi-plectrum sleeve system, comprising:

a multi-plectrum sleeve, having:

a body for gripping, extending from a first side to a second side;

a first slot in the first side, extending inwardly into the body;

a second slot in the second side, extending inwardly into the body;

a first plectrum removably inserted into the first slot, leaving the picking point exposed;

a second plectrum removably inserted into the second slot, leaving the picking point exposed, the second plectrum picking point pointing in a different direction than the first plectrum picking point;

wherein the multi-plectrum sleeve provides for grip to the first plectrum inserted within the first slot and the second plectrum inserted within the second slot;

wherein use of the multi-plectrum sleeve with a musical instrument provides for easy transitioning between engaging the musical instrument with the first plectrum picking point and the second plectrum picking point separately.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first slot and second slot are connected within the body to allow for the non-picking ends of the inserted plectra to make direct contact with one another and overlap within the body.

3. A method of using multiple plectra with a musical instrument, the method comprising:

providing a multi-plectra sleeve having a body for gripping, with a first slot extending into the body from a first side and a second slot extending into the body from a second side;

securing a first plectrum within the first slot, leaving the picking point exposed;

securing a second plectrum within the second slot, leaving the picking point exposed, the second plectrum picking point pointing in a different direction than the first plectrum picking point;

using the first plectrum picking point with the musical instrument; and

rotating the multi-plectra sleeve such that the second plectrum picking point can be used with the musical instrument separately from the first plectrum picking point.
