D'Addario Accessories 3DBK7-25 Black Ice Guitar Picks, Extra-Heavy, 25 Pack

Small but not TOO small (slightly larger than Jazz III's). Long-lasting; pick-scrapes don't chew up the edges like on celluloid! Grippy, matte, smoothe surface works for me -- no texture, but I rarely drop them. No flex at all, extra-heavy duralin does NOT move. Very direct, controllable tone. And the price is right!

These picks are just great had them for a month or two now and I have to say I favor them over the dunlop jazz picks. These are a bit bigger and if are a bit thicker for that fast playing and awesome sweep picking. Although they are a bit bigger then the dunlop jazz picks this picks are after all still jazz picks and are perfect for fast playing and basically any genre. Would with out a doubt but again and highly recommend them. Especially for the usual metal player.

Let me tell you that I'm a boi that likes a thick pick. You see me with a pick in my hand you know it's thicc. I've used 5mm picks and I've used .20mm and I instantly knew I needed the girth in my life. I like a 1-2mm thickness personally, it hits me right in the sweet spot but all kindsa picks come in thicc so why pick this picks you might ask? Because it's smooth and when you work with something that's big, black, and thicc, it better be smooth let me tell ya. Now maybe you don't like it thick, I've certainly met my fair share of dames that had that preference and if that's the case they go thinner. I've used the .80 and .55 mm and while that .55 was far to flimsy for my somewhat over masculine hands just know that it was still very smooth and for something so flimsy, very easy to play with. Don't hesitate, this is the pick that you need in your life.

You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose... you can also choose this pick. Nice and thick for those bass strings. Very reasonable price.

Good quality material with consistent points and finish. Solid grip. Easy to hold onto and control. Two personal things make me deduct only one star. 1- I prefer a larger pick. Small pointy picks bug me. 2- I prefer a lighter color since black picks have a tendency to disappear on dark stages on top of black amplifier heads. If you're young with perfect eyesight or only play in a well lit bedroom, that won't be a problem. If you like small pointy picks and don't mind the color, then these are quality picks at a reasonable price.

Picks are personal, so I will just describe: the size if this pick is between the Jazz 3 and Jazz 3 XL. I like the size very much. The material is extremely stiff, but has a rather dull tone ( in the 1.5mm). The surface texture is very simikar to tortex, which i do not like. The matte finish makes the pick feel like it has baby powder on the surface. I prefer glossy surface picks, like D'Andrea pro-plec. The edges are accurately cut and slightly broken, but not well-rounded. Hence, for me, they require at least a full day of break in. I ended up not liking them and will probably not buy again, although they are good enough to practice with, and I hate to waste anything.

I bought these a couple of months ago and cant go back to anything else now. Pros : Very thick (1.5mm) so you can play crazy fast, They have a pointed tip which I prefer a lot cause you can have just the tip in contact with the strings, Surface is kind of rubbery so they dont slip very much Cons : The size is a little bit small but I have gotten used to it now

Great pick, really good size and grip. I also like the flatness. its way better than jazz picks and I was really blown away by these. I really thought I was not gonna like them but ended up loving them, I think these will be my main.

Best picks on earth. A tad bigger than Jazz3 but they don't slip like J3 does.

Ces médiators (Black Ice 1,5mm - Extra Heavy) sont parfaits pour un jeu lead très rond. Ne cherchez pas de son claquant pour de la rythmique folk, ici, on tape dans le grave et le bas-médium : il faudra chercher dans le Celluloid ou le nylon pour ça - les CelluGlo sont classes dans cette catégorie. Pour des attaques plus franches en Lead, les Ultex BlackFang feront des compagnons idéaux. Dans un registre très différent, les signatures John Petrucci méritent d'être essayés : la forme est équivalent, mais le plastique brillant donne un son totalement différent, intermédiaire avec le claquant du Celluloid et la netteté des médiators durs (perso, j'aime moins, mais chacun ses goûts) Le Duralin est un matériau très solide comparé à d'autres (par exemple l'Ultex de Dunlop) et la fabrication avec triple polissage est exemplaire : on a tout de suite l'impression d'avoir un médiator "rodé". La sensation de jeu est équivalente à des médiators en os ou coco, plat et polis (donc, pas Dugain, je n'avais trouvé mon bonheur qu'en fabrication custom voir 2ème ligne de la photo) : en gros, ça glisse tout seul, avec très peu de "bruit" de médiator dans le son des cordes. La prise en main est vraiment sympa, il ne glisse pas, même avec un peu de transpiration (équivalent Ultex). Timber tones fait aussi de beaux médiators en os, corne, bois et je les utilise aussi régulièrement, mais moins que le Black Ice (dernière ligne - merci Amazon !)

Es ist wie immer Geschmackssache, aber diese kleinen Dinger vereinfachen schnelles Spiel und und haben dabei kaum ein Nebengeräusch, was bei cleanen Soli echt heraussticht. Wer sich erst einmal daran gewöhnt hat und wenn der Spielstil passt, wird sie nichtmehr missen wollen. Empfehlung: nehmt Mal zum Test eine Härte dicker und vergleicht, ich habe je nach Gitarre, Saiten und Song Mal dünner Mal dicker, aber immer beides dabei

Ottimo!
