Ok, it sounds weird: a ten dollar guitar pick? But don't think of it that way, think of it as a ten dollar effects box. The patented Jellifish is like a drum brush for your acoustic or electric guitar. Instead of distorting the sound after it's been captured, you change how the sound is created. Simple, right? The Jellifish, like a capo or a slide, gives you a mechanical technique for changing your playing. On an acoustic guitar, you get a richer, fuller sound because of the increased number of contact points with the strings. On an electric guitar, you can get a much broader range of sounds, especially when combined with an aggressive playing style and effects boxes.
If you're looking for a distinctive sound or just want to experiment with some way to break out of the dulldrums, this could be the cheapest way to do it. Check out the Jellifish web site for sample MP3 files and videos that demonstrate the various techniques you can use. There's even some egg head physics white paper on the web site. Available at many retail stores.

Hi, I came across your blog through Google. You've got a good write-up of this product. It's different from most, which appear to be cut-and-paste fromt the company's website. Thanks, man. You sold me on it!
