Ótima palheta, não produz scratch já que a borda é bem polida e os harmônicos são bem evidentes. Para o som clean é muito interessante, a palhetada é bem suave e precisa.

I found myself in a predicament after switching my pick grip and finding my usual .80mm black ice had too much bite.The .55mm was better, but the material is just too sharp and scrapey. And then my picking action sharpens them, making them grab even more.These are a nice balance. Jazz shape, smoothness, and precision... with just a little give to let me dig in. I like that they're slightly oversized for a jazz pick. I can use two fingers comfortably without losing fine articulation.My problem is that I pick at a reverse angle, down and away from the string. I roll my hand down towards the knee and do sort of a door knock motion, with the pick pinched between thumb, index, and middle.Believe it or not, it's a speed picking technique. I can alternate pick at blistering speeds with no strain.But grip is crucial. If you have to squeeze, the fingers sway back and forth. The extreme pick angle also has A LOT of attack, so the pick needs to be fairly thin and glide smoothly. These are smooth glass and I am FLYING. The grip is perfect. It's totally effortless, and equally comfy strumming and playing loose elbow with a relaxed grip. Equally at home with shredding and feel playingI just wish you got more than 3 for the money lol. But dang if it wasn't exactly what I needed.

I was looking for picks that matched my new Tosa Turquoise guitar (Reverend - Greg Koch P90 Gristlemaster). It looked like the kind of might, and they have have some kind of grippish stuff so I bought three to try out. I normally use Fender Medium (well, exclusively unless I find a Dunlop laying around).Wow! I got them Saturday and just tried them out on Sunday on the stage. Wow! The whole time, I was thinking about how much I liked these picks. They sound perfect, stay in place, don't slip, and they do kind of match the guitar :)10 Stars and 5 thumbs up!

This size is great for solid body or hollow body electrics. They are very smooth on the playing surface, and the grips are excellent. Also, seem to last much longer than a standard Tortex.

Llegaron antes, están buenas pero sería mejor aumentar un poco el calibre...

I started on Tortex and Nylon picks then Jazz III , settling on the Max-Grip Carbon Fiber for years.I then tried the Jazz III XL FLEX .88 and was surprised! It has the BEST tone ever but was too slippery so I needed a grip version of the Jazz III XL but with that snappy scratchy tone you only get with thin picks.That's when I saw this absolute beauty. Its thin yet rigid made of ultex which is a huge win. It arrived in a beautiful package unlike from other sellers where they just throw the picks in a letter. I'm sooo glad I purchased these.

Nulla di eccezionale, al netto della scorrevolezza del plettro.Comunque davvero troppo costosi.

Incredible picks. The “slappiness” of the pick is necessary to get a sharp transient on the low strings, which makes riffing on extended range guitars much clearer. Also, if you want to play an 8 string guitar cleanly, I’ve found that you need these thin picks because your right hand is stretched across the strings in order to mute them. Because you can’t move your right hand too much (or else risk unmuting strings) you need a thin pick to provide the “bend” that your hand does not.Used this way, this pick allows you to have a high degree of control over the strings without increasing the effort required to pluck notes.Only con is that they wear out crazy fast, especially if you play extended range guitar. I’m not kidding about this, the entire tip of one pick literally disappeared in Just under a month. Expect to buy a lot of these if you like them.

Arrivati nel tempo previsto, il materiale e ottimo e il suono brillante... Per come sono abituato sono un po' troppo morbidi (uso jazz III XL Series) ma il plettro è di ottima fattura.

If these were just a little less expensive, they’d be my go to for most applications. The AAL theme is just a bonus, I love the band but would be fine with regular Prime Tones. The material lends to a fuller tone from any of my guitars and .73 is my preferred thickness for most picking so these are a huge hit for me. They hold up pretty well through trem-style picking and full strumming, even with my more aggressive attack and heavier gauge string preference. The gripping is also nice, I find I don’t need any sticky with these most of the time and seldom lose my grip even a bit. Great picks, just maybe a little spendier than my not-quite-rock-star budget can take all the time.

I USE A .73 PICK STANDARD GUITAR PICK NOW BUT WHILE GETTING THE OTHER DUNLOP PRIMETONE DECIDED TO TRY THESE - A DIFFERENT FEEL BUT CAN SEE THEY ARE GOOD FOR VERY FAST PICKING SO WILL JOIN THE ARSENAL!

These three picks are absolutely perfect in shape and size for what I want. They aren't as small as a jazz III, but aren't as big as a regular. It's a very happy medium and I love them as an all the time pick. They wear fairly fast though. That is what is holding me back from a five star rating.
