I love the mellow tone I get from these picks. Depending on the sound I'm looking for, these picks reduce the plastic on metal sound. I prefer the thinner picks for my acoustic guitar and the thicker for the bass. I don't care for most plastic picks because my fingers get sweaty and they are hard for me to hold onto. The wood texture helps them to be much easier to hold on to. . Under extended use the edge will begin to wear but I do mean extended wear. What happened to that pick? See drawback below. I have given away a few of these picks and noticed the recipients used them for a while until they "lost them". There will always be at least one of these picks in each of my cases. The only drawback to these picks, don't leave them in your pocket and wash your clothes. After multiple washings they will begin to come apart. I cannot/will not fault these picks for my own stupidity. I'm on my third set.

I play pretty aggressively, these picks just break. Gold spund though.

Decided I wanted to try and wood picks. Other products seemed low quality, so I went with the variety pack to give the material a try, and experiment with different shapes. Definitely found a new favorite, and placed another order already.

Pros: familiar feel, great tone, nice texture, very ridged (no flex),

Cons: a little slick, but not too bad. I haven't dropped it yet.

Such a wonderful device. Next level functionality and beautiful as well.
