    I finally broke down and gave them a try. These are the best picks that I ever had in my hands, and I have ben playing a long time.

    I promise that I won't be giving any of these away. If someone shows up at a gig without a pick, they're SOL

    I ordered some of these from a recommendtation from Robert. I can honestly say they are the best picks I have ever used. I got a combo pack with a bunch of different sizes and gauges. I will never go back to my old Fender mediums again. These won't slip out of your hand. And they just feel great in your hand. You must give them a try.

    Yeah, they are awesome. I just got some new ones, and all of them they are really good. I have both pointy and round ones, and I can't decide which I like best.

    The Screamer is my favorite. These almost make it futile to go back to using conventional picks. Good stuff.

    The pointy Screamers are my favorites. They just work. I was a bit skeptical until I tried 'em. Now, I can't use anything else other than my fingers.

    I'd post that I agree, but I already did that on the previous page.

    Plus, they're pointy!

    Bruce wrote a song about that didn't he Doug? Glory Days?

    When I told Vinni I liked using some of the really fat picks he made me up a really hefty one just to bust my nuts. After I get someone to help me lift it up it actually plays pretty well.

    I've grown to love the Screamer for my acoustic too, the people who I have introduced to the v-picks bring it up very often, that they never use anything else now.
