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 Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

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

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.
Ditto same here with some Ruby reds adding to the fab four are reds Screamer and medium pointed.next I gotta try a Dimension buffed but as a whole I like em.thanks boss for turning me on to them via your video.Originally Posted by Robert
