Perfect sound and playability, they only wear quickly

Anonymous 04.11.2014

This was my first "high-end" pick. I loved playing it. It goes across the strings beautifull, the indents keep the pick in place and it just sounded gorgeous. A slight wear created a bevel which made it my favourite pick. Sadly, the pick had worn through completely (in the same way as e.g. a Tortex pick does) in less than a month by (!) non-professional use. If you're thinking about buying this product, I'll recommend it for its sound and playability, but do think carefully before spending the extra money on it. There are more durable alternatives on the market.

Amazing, but doesn't last for long

George Waters 29.09.2017

I'm a bass player that started using picks not too long ago. I play rock/blues/jazz normally, but i use a pick only with rock music. My first two bass picks were from gibson and i found myself quite comfortable, but i still felt the need for a stronger pick to compete with the strength of bass strings.

I fell in love with this pick right from the beginning, the grip is great and it's as strong as i wanted it to be. Maybe for the guitar such strength is not needed as the movements are faster when switching to another string, but for the genre and my style i required something tough.

On the otherside, the material of this pick makes it wear off easily and you can immediately see an opaque layer right after the first use. It's the best pick i can think of, but i would suggest a cheaper and more resistant one if money have quite a role in the decision, as i would order multiple of the, to guarantee a certain constance

Great pick, not so great durability

Fantastic feeling to play with this little wonder. But it wears a bit too quickly against the strings so buy a few while you're at it.

BRILLIANT TONE, POOR LIFESPAN

this pick is so fast, on my taylor 314 i can play rapid jazz lines which are articulated clearly and effrotlessly.

the only problem is that after 2 hours i can see wear, and tho i shred jazz lines, i still think that for the price the life of the pick is a poor return. its double the price of a timber tones buffalo horn pick and double a gravity sunrise 2mm.

i cant afford 20 euros a week on picks. pity cos its an awesome mediateur...
