Hey, Robert!
What's good about them? Just about everything...
The tone is wonderful for most styles. I like the fact that they are sensitive to attack. They can be very mellow hybrid picking. The V-Pick will emulate the tone of your fingers and create a very even sound. When you dig in, they will get "angry" when you want them to. Some of the reviewers who are shredders don't seem to care for them as much, but then again some do. They "glide" across the strings very well for arpegiating, chording, or single lines, and actually have a kind of "sexy" feel as you play. And they are VERY COOL LOOKING.
I have met Vinni, the Prez of V-Picks, and he is a straight up dude. A real nice guy and AWESOME git player. He has picks in the hands of Robben ford, Gabe Manzo of Malo, maybe Jorge Santana, WCR pickups guru Jim Wagner, etc. If you order some, tell him John Dean said to throw in an extra. Vinni would appreciate having you in his corner. I think you'll really dig them....Let me know. (I sound like a salesman, don't I. I'm just really stoked on them.)
Check out vinni's sites.
Take care,
John
