Been using them for years! I swear by them and love them.

Previous to that I was using Sharkfins.

They're great, aren't they? My next favorite pick is the classic Tortex pick.


We have similar tastes! lol. Same here. They are great, I love using the ridged edge with light, upwards brush strokes with a Trem effect on a clean Tele.

Definitely! The strings just fit in the ridges. I also love the fin side for many things too. Great picks!

Glad to see I'm not the only one using them!

I've gotten so used to them I feel weird with any other which isn't too healthy at random jams etc and I don't have one on me which is prob a bad thing but as I said, I love them!

I know a couple of other guys here that use them occasionally but not all the time.

I just got turned on to what I feel is the most perfect pick I ever used from my friend on the Vanhalen forum. The Ibanez Grip Wizard, it has a sandpaper middle on both sides and is the most perfect feeling pick I ever used.

I have been using Tortex for a long time, not Fin ones but there the same.

I've tried them--the regular tip is a different shape--so they're not for me--but I do know some people who love them.

they're not pricey at all--so if you are curious pick one up.

I have only been using these picks (1.14 mm) for at least 15 years. They are hard to come by in stores so I ordered pretty much a lifetime supply while I was working in a musical instrument store. I can't use regular picks.
