Plays like expensive. Priced like typical pick.
If you want to try a new guitar pick use these. everyone says that when you try a premium guitar pick you wont go back and its true. These are only just a bit more expensive than a typical pick but they play like they are handcrafted boutique picks. I love the feel. They are lightly smaller than your usual guitar pick but its worth getting used too, its increased my speed and its so easy to do pinch harmonics now. Didn't know a pick could change all that and i would never go back to normal picks. Also if your worried about snapping stings due to the thickness of the pick don't worry. I use 9 gauge strings an i haven't snapped any ever.

A happy accident
I purchased these as I was running low on picks (seriously how do they vanish) and needed some more.I've used Jazz 3 for a few years now and found they are perfect for my style of playing.Normally I go for the 1.25 version but I got these not paying attention to size and its turned out to be a happy mistake.The picks are really firm and there is no bend in them so your tremelo picking will be on point, definitely will purchase again.Only downside is that the jazz 3 logo has rubbed off pretty quickly but that's not ends of the world :)

Almost perfect - shame about colour!
These are fantastic sounding picks, and are both very accurate and clear. Do note that they are noticeably slightly blunter than the red Jazz and Ultex IIIs, , but you can sharpen them on a carpet(look it up!) to a razor-like edge if needed. Excellent jazz sound in particular, I would say personally that the Ultex III is better for rock and metal as they keep strings sounding 'new' with the kind of bright attack they have.My major issue is the colour -- if these things get anywhere near a dark surface you'll tear your hair out trying to find them. I have a dark grey carpet in my room and lost all 12 of them within two months! I honestly think guitar picks should exclusively come in obnoxious, luminous colours. Top quality picks though.

Great picks
Switched to these from the nylon red jazz iii's. These are very slightly bigger ( hardly a mm in it ), and to myself feel much smoother, with less hang up on strings. They wear more consistently rather than getting scratches in them like the nylon ones.These are now my go-to picks.

WOOOOOO!!!!!
This is my perfect pick. I literally spent a lot of money buying packs of picks only to find this unseemingly pick was all-around the best. Accuracy, speed, precision, tone, string contact...ALL PERFECT. Keep in my mind, I tested all the picks by way of elimination three times over a period of a whole month. This and the Ultex Jazz III are the two best but this pick specifically ''remembers'' where you ended the previous session. I know it sounds weird but when i hold it, everything falls in place automatically. Hard to explain but worth trying at least once if you are serious about guitar. Get these regardless of what size you use. I went from a 3mm small stubby all the way down to .60mm, this 1.14mm pick was top of the curve. Need this in your arsenal.

Nooooo. What a mug
I bought 10 when I wanted the XL size. These are small. But that's me being a twat. Cant fault what you dont mean to purchase but accidentally do.

Sweet lead picks
Everyone has a different playing style, after years and many different styles and brands - I think this is finally the one for me. A few people have complained the picks are too small in their reviews - see my phot for a comparison to a standard tortex III.

A very good pick
When I bought these picks I was actually looking for 1mm, but because the only one I had was so worn I could not see the label.Anyway, when they arrived I found them a bit odd to play with as the thickness is uniform throughout the pick and when you are playing with thick gauge strings, the scratch on the coil iv very audible. The fantastic thing about this pick is that the material is durable. So I grabbed some very fine sand paper and I sharpened and curved the front edges of the pick to a cutting point. This eliminated the strong scratch, allows for minimal resistance when playing fast, and looks pretty cool as well.Very low price for a lot of picks, you can tweak and change them to your preference.Worth the buy, 100%
