    Review of the SGF picks!

    I have been playing around with the picks (shipping them out tomorrow)

    The feel of them, they kind of feel chalky so you can hang on to them pretty good even though they aren't textured like a lot of other picks are starting to do.

    They are very sturdy and seem to me pick better, especially during palm muting, they seem to be really putting out some "oomph"

    They are a little more pointy than the dunlop maxgrip 1.14s I have been using, and it seems easier to travel between strings and I feel like my playing is a little cleaner.

    This could all be in my head, but if all it took was new picks to make me play a little better, well worth it!

    Well when you play acoustic at church sunday, and you dont like putting a new set of Elixirs every 2 weeks, youll find that piece of paper very handy. Honestly i just got used to them. I use 2.00 MM Gators for solo stuff with Pinch Harmonics. Is that better?
