At the opposite end of the metal bar, a tapered surface terminating in a point is provided for fast picking. On lateral surfaces of the metal bar are provided grooves for receiving the thumb and forefinger, respectively, of the user. The top edge of the metal bar is rounded useful to perform "slide" and "finger tapping" techniques.
