For $20 each they better offer a happy ending when you are done playing.

Re: V-PICK @ Summer NAMM


$4 for one pick? Does it come with a cheeseburger or anything? Maybe a shot of whiskey?

Re: V-PICK @ Summer NAMM


Holy **** in a handbasket 20$. I use three different pics. For twangy sounds I use a 1mm Dunlop blue plastic. For really mellow tone I use the purple 1.8mm Dunlop and in the middle you got the standard Fender heavy. You can get a handfull of either for a buck fifty at local music store. I can't see spending 20$ for a pic without a hot asian school girl playing a SG comming with it.

No, just a kick in the nuts, you know, just like every time you fill up your gas tank.

Look on the bright side, it will cost £20 here

I'd rather get one of these for £3 and shred like my idols:

Re: V-PICK @ Summer NAMM


Ah I see the light...How sad it is to share some knowledge with adultolecents and recieve nothing but childish jibber of jealousy and stupidity...Not only can some of you not spell, but reading is also uncomprehenceable to such simple minds...To be a critic YOU MUST USE IT FIRST...$20 was for the Collasal pick...The players size is $4-$5...These picks will out last any other pick you use...So $5 for one pick is fair concidering you will use 20 picks in the same amount of playing time...Also these picks are NOT for beginners it takes great dynamics to use it properly...So if you use three different picks you DO NOT have the right hand technique it takes...But if you use the V-Pick it will improve your skills...This site is amazing, such a little community that thinks it is Icon in the music world...LMAO...Get away from your computer and go out into the real world and you to will see the light...It is sad that some of you need this site just to pumpup your egos, so you can hide your false sense of insecurities....

Don't be rude, there are some great guitarists, and people on this site.

I don't think there is some magic pick that will bring your playing together (except of course for the pick pictured above ) But these do look like decent picks. I ordered a few of the cheaper ones and when they are here I will let you know what I think. As far as how long they last, I have never had one of my current picks (ultex jazz IIIs) wear down before I lose it, so that is no issue for me. I think the issue is that people don't want to change their current picks because they are not a problem. Why spend 4-5 bucks on a pick when you can get one that you like and works great for 50 cents. I also think it is ignorant of you to say that because you use multiple picks for different applications you "do not have the right hand technique" because many great guitarists use multiple picks.
