Claims17
A plectrum ring comprising a ring element and a plectrum, said ring element being adapted to be worn around the middle finger of a user, a boss carried by said ring element, and stud means pivotally mounting said plectrum on said boss, said stud means comprising a stud element having an axis which passes outside of said ring element such that the axis about which said plectrum pivots does not intersect said middle finger when the plectrum is worn by the user, whereby said plectrum is readily grasped between the index finger and the thumb of the user during use and is readily pivotable about said stud element while the ring element is still on the middle finger to permit the plectrum to be pivoted to a position removed from between the ends of the index finger and thumb to thereby free the index finger and thumb to pluck the strings of an instrument or the like while the plectrum is still retained on the middle finger.
A plectrum ring comprising a ring element and a plectrum, said ring element being adapted to be worn around the middle finger of a user, a boss carried by said ring element, and stud means mounting said plectrum on said boss, said stud means comprising a stud element having an axis about which said plectrum is pivotable, said stud means being constructed and arranged such that said axis of said stud element extends outside of said ring element.
