Thanks for the tour. I didn't know they were hand beveled. That's pretty cool.

I was at a jam last week and one of the other guitarists was using one. He told me that for 35 years he always used the standard 351 style medium picks but has been using the v-picks for a few months now and loves them more than anything else that he's ever used.

He gave me one and i like it. It takes a little time to get used to, but once you do, woah baby, these things are nice!

These are the original medium rounded clear ones. 8)

I didn't know you hadn't tried V-Picks. You shoulda said something, I would have hooked you up. :wink:

Thanks for the tour. I immediately went to the V-Picks website read all about the picks and their creator...great story and cool creation. I will definitely buy some soon.

Might cure that Gear Acquistion Syndrome I've been suffering from lately (at least until I save up money for a bass). 8)

Yeah, I have to give them a try sometime, don't know when it will happen, consider it a bit of a overkill to order picks from half way around the globe :lol:
