Are you in england? because thats the land of the curtain locks. I don't knowthat pick, but likely one of the UK members would.

The rimmer or RB curtain pick as it is refered to in alot of posts on here is well covered in other posts. its limited in what it can deal with lockwise as doesnt cope with low hung levers. the best bet for your money for versatility and lock coverage would be as follows;

1) If you have a heavy hand ( suffer with too heavy tension )

The south west safe tools triple pick
or
The ICL curtain pick

2) if you have a controlled light hand and good degree of feel in fingers

The cb pocket curtain picks
or cb multigauge tool

You need the best tool for your hand, above are the current best curtain picks on the market, with the most versatility, The cb pick is bar far the best with the widest coverage, but not effective in a heavy hand, next is the icl and the francis south west safe tool picks.

hope this helps

thanks for the advise.
I'm just starting out and bought the rimmer lock pick
as a job lot.
most people seem to recommend the cb pick.
