This is certainly the best-sounding pick I own (and I own hundreds of different types). It’s got the wide-frequency response like a Chicken Picks do, without the pick scrape sound. Low chirp, low scrape, high output. I bought the 1.0mm. I’m accustomed to the 1.14 to 1.38 thickness with other picks and 1.5 is verging on a bit too thick for me. With the way the tip is fashioned I probably should have gone with the 1.5 because the 1.0 has a bit more flex than I like. I like them completely rigid, but as thin as possible. If I could have one that was 0.3mm and completely inflexible, that would be ideal. But the timbre is most important and this sounds really good/pleasant, better than the acrylics to my ears, and it’s the loudest pick that I have, about even with the Chick Picks in volume. And it's got a very smooth release. Very slippery without sacrificing tone.
