Looking into using a V pick so if its awesome your all sure to hear from me :P



alot of your tapping kings use jazz picks . they tuck into the pulm easier allowing more finger movement.
i just cant use them. big hands, they get lost in there lol.


HAHA:P i promise you it would be fine eventually :) I have massive hands ha:P

i use to use stainless steel picks. man they are bright sounding too. if you do a lot of string raking you can rip folks spine out raking with those.
oh damn theres the metal head in me coming out again lol.
i gotta watch myself. i'll be in there with the carvins cranked in minutes
if the metal monkey shows his ugly face. hes been supressed for a very long time.


The metal monkey needs to get out every now and then. I'm glad to hear Carvin getting some love. My V3 is a really great amp.

hey carvin makes great stuff. i love my carvin stacks.
mine were custom made for me back in the 80's.
i wouldnt trade them for all the les pauls in TENN.
people often over look carvin when buying amps.
shame really. good product built right here in the USA.
mine are for metal only. man they can get loud bro lol.

Mostly Fender Medium, but I did try the Jazz III just too small for me.

Fender 351 heavies and some medium once in a while. National thumpicks for acoustic when I play Bluegrass. I tried the Dunlop tortex but they made my guitars sound dull, it's all a matter of preference. In all fairness to Dunlop picks they do last a lot longer than most brands I have tried.

v picks dimensions and screamers. i used to use (and sometimes still do) use fender and ernie ball extra heavies and a few tortexes, but my hand tightens up and starts hurting faster with those... the thickness of v picks makes them WAAAAAAAY more comfortable for me to use

I recently switched from Dunlop 3mm stubbies to the V-pick small pointed thick. I'm sold on these. They are everything they claim to be.
