  • Hey, welcome!

    Hooker set is a solid start I think, but don’t get the acrylic locks. They are not very useful to learn picking, and break easily. I’d suggest getting a cutaway lock and a master lock 140. Real locks give much better feedback, and well teach you more.

    Edit: assuming you’re in the US, I recommend these picks to start: https://jimylongs.com/products/

    They are made by a community members and well loved (and very very affordable). I suggest the round hooks, they’ll make it easier to feel the pins.Also think about getting some Top of the keyway tensioners, I hear sparrows heavy bars are good)

    Also, if you’re into discord, consider joining the lpu discord. There are a lot of helpful people there, and you may find it easier to find help.

    Good luck!
