I'm really getting the hang of this pick,at first I thought it was rather thick (4.0) but the tone I get with it is incredible, so I thought I'd stick to it for a while and see how the feel develops. I love the little carvings on both sides of the pick which certainly add in keeping a firm grip while playing,this is very well thought over and very functional. Again great material and polishing work. I'll never return to plastic picks again,this is my tone and feel. A real killer pick which produces great tone,give it a chance , you'll see and hear.
