We ONLY use Red Eared Slider shell. Every pick we sell is a small conservation victory! Instead of buying a Hawksbill shell pick and feeling like you could be buying a poacher lunch (you really could be buying poached shell), buy a Tortoise Tone guitar pick and help to reduce illegal trade in marine turtle parts.he main distinction is that turtles are at least semi aquatic and tortoises live on dry land. Why the shell of the Hawksbill sea turtle is called tortoise shell is something of a puzzle, but we continue to honor tradition with our business name. The truth is that land tortoise shell is no good for guitar picks.
