There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I usually use a 1.5mm medium V-Pick. This gives me a very good acoustic sound from flat tops and archtops. My only complaint would be how much 'click' a V-Pick generates and they are just a little pricey.
These sound as good as the V-Pick but with very little 'click'. That and I like the complex tapered shape and satin finish. Easy to grip, great size for me, and the price is quite reasonable for what you get.
If you play single note runs on acoustic and like interior picking on chords, this is a pick you should try. Great articulation and great feel with a nice crisp sound.

Still, for Strumming, this is a quality pick and should not be overlooked.
makes for a very smooth tremolo, plus they are kinda big n hefty, I like that

I will be buying more of them !
Also works well for guitar.
( I use it for gypsy jazz guitar)

Fica a advertência de que essa não é a palheta de 3mm com o logo da Dunlop em alto relevo para deixar a pegada mais fácil. É uma palheta lisa. A diferença entre a Dunlop e a Ernie Ball é a ponta, que é arredondada na Dunlop e afiada na Ernie Ball.
If you like a pick that is 1/8" thick than this is for you.
I found it not good for playing the mandolin.
Description did not mention the thickness.
