The grip is reusable with other standard shaped picks it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merciful-evans Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Mostly these. V Pick Psycho I am starting to use these more now. Chicken Picks Bermuda III. much smaller than the Psycho but a better material. Since I've not played out since covid, I'm just using my fingers mostly now. I sometimes use a smaller pick for jazz voiced guitars, including a stone pick. On anything else, stone 'chirps', and that is annoying.

kaicho8888 Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Jazz III ... small, simple, good grip surface, and fairly cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanHenry Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I use Dunlop Jazz Carbon Fibre picks, the reason that I started using them (electric only) was because of the finger grip's as I don't drop them. All my friends can't understand how I can use them, they hate them.

kidblast Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I really like these. D'Andrea's .73mm. Comfortable grip, not too slippery like others. Used to use the same sized Fender's but they're a bit too slick for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the "jazz" shape, (which I think is what these are called). there's a smaller size too, but those are TOO small for me. These work just about right. I used to use the Fenders, but they are too slick and move around a bit too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At what thickness does a pick no longer flex, and does one need to go bigger for even less flex. Asking for rct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on material, but 0.055" of most plastics (1.4 mm) will flex. I would guess around 0.075" (2 mm) it would not longer flex. Meaning that you could feather pick with no lag. Bigger? As in longer & wider? That would allow more flex as its spread over a larger surface. In practice, the string gauge and the string tension will offer different resistances to the pick. So will the pick attack angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By bigger I meant thickness. I should have stated that Merc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see thick picks for a bass player, but as a guitarist .8 - .9mm is as far as usually go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
