I purchased a sampler to see which of the varieties i would prefer. I really like them and plan to use them going forward.
This box should be better than the cheapest wood one can find. Pine, is it? Try mahogany ... and bevel the edges. Use a glass plate instead of plastic. Add some non-slip feet to the bottom. IOW, make a better box. The real value was the picks that were inside the box. I think I got (retail value) $399 worth of picks for far less than 200 bucks. This display case was simply a bonus. And, no one should whine when they get any kind of a bonus. This box will go over the club so other players can take Gravity Picks for a test run. I doubt anyone will critique the box. Special thanks to The Owner for working magic this time. Bottom Line: I'd make this order again any day of the week!!
TLDR: If you've played guitar for more than a year, you _deserve_ a custom made pick. Find one that suits you as early on as you can.
Gravity picks are the best I've owned in over five decades of playing. And, imagine, I got my first Gravity picks as case candy in a new guitar purchased from Sweetwater only just last Christmas. I'm comparing these to my ol' Jim Dunlop Max-Grips and two different BlueChip offerings. Took me about two seconds to realize I favor the picks with the eliptical hole. Thumb and forefinger naturally put the pick's tip at the perfect angle to work the strings. I bought a "Filled Box" and Chris let me choose the exact picks going in there. My order was complicated, but filled perfectly. Thicknesses from this order were 2 to 6mm. BlueChip 60s feel like they're 1.5mm. The Classic XL Gravity is also practically the same size as the TAD-1R. The first time I rubbed TAD-1R across the strings of my acoustic I was left grinning ear-to-ear. The Classic XL 2mm with the Master Finish sounds even better. I didn't think I'd care for thicker picks, but they're easy to play and sound so good. I've no idea which one(s) I'll reach for. It'll likely be the polished edge for electric though.. Also, I live in Germany. These picks were ordered (free shipping through USPS to the APO) on the 29th of July and arrived on the 12th of August. Looked like delivery was slowed by Customs, but the packaging had not been opened and re-sealed. Overall, quite happy so far. Jam-On, People!!
I bounce around from pick to pick quite often, but the striker with speed bevels is so smooth, so loud, and so very fast, I feel like I might have finally found the one.
The Gravity Axis Standard and Extra Large picks with the single round grip hole have become my favorite picks. I actually use them on nylon strings and the tone for single line playing is very beautiful in addition to having a nice feel that I find easy to hold.
I really like the Gravity acrylic picks. However, I found the difference between polished and unpolished a bit confusing. Trying them out can get quite pricey, and variety packs often include picks that don’t work for me, especially the extra-large ones.
It would be great to have a customizable pack option—maybe a set of 6 picks where I can mix and match mini and big mini sizes, that I sense will likely fit what I prefer in my hands. Maybe a pack with different grip holes, different gauges. If such a combo sample could be offered at a discounted rate, it would make trying out different picks much easier and more affordable.
I’m a guitar technician, and I service about 900-1000 guitars a year, and gravity picks hold up through excessive use and make playing more fun! The only downside is I’m located in Canada and the shipping cost is a downer if I want to order more.
I have finally discovered the perfect pick for the jazz guitarist.
I have a vast pick collection. Hundreds of not thousands of picks. But whenever I'm playing serious? Well I always reach for my Gravity Picks. Great tone, they last forever, and they look really cool too.
These are the best picks ever. No more boomer bends, no more Tim Henson soulless solos, and most importantly no more plaque on my teeth. Thanks gravity!
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE THINGS! Thanks for the awesome picks! Perhaps I’ll snag some gold versions in the future! Thanks everyone! p.s. the fact they glow in stage means I’ll never lose another pick live!
Love my org Gold Series Striker 1.0! Looking forward to receiving the 1.5 that I just ordered.
These are great picks. Nice and bright with a great tone. The master finish on the edge is even brighter. Good stuff.
I've been using gravity picks exclusively for over a decade. They last long, feel and sound great, and I have never received a bad one. Top notch quality control. The ability to customize the size and shape and more for reasonable prices is fantastic. Everyone should try a few gravity picks at least once. There's something great for every player
This is a great pick, the material is perfect. The shape and feel as well. I just can't justify having more than one because of the price. I've seen your YouTube video and completely understand the cost. I will continue to use the pick and when it wears out or I lose it (this will undoubtedly happen first) I'll buy another one for home use only.
I didn’t think thatI’d like the feel of these. I’ve got a ton of picks on my desk always trying to find the perfect pick for a style or specific piece of music. I just keep reaching for a Gravity Pick and not putting it down.
My order over the weekend was shipped immediately! The picks are amazing!
