Only a few players can actually use picks like these properly. I've seen Devin Townsend use similar shaped picks in maybe a heavier gauge. However I just wanted to try them out and experiment with sounds and my picking technique. My first impressions of these picks were that they basically looked like 3 picks in one since they had 3 sharp ends t...
These strings i felt were suprisingly good. I can't really say if they do anything as advertised because...they don't actually advertise that these strings actually DO anything different from regular strings? Better pitch and definition and in lower tunings? On a 10-46 gauge? I don't think it matters what you use, if you're tuning low, you don't...
Before discovering the jazztone 208 this was my main go-to-pick for acoustic guitar. I was so sick of hearing guitar players using such thin picks on acoustic for strumming and picking etc and thick metal guitar player shredder picks never sounded right either. And then I discovered these black beauties, the jazztone series picks. It doesn't say...
the 208! Finally a pick that I feel comfortable playing acoustic with and getting the proper sound out of. With acoustics, the tone is completely dependent on which type of pick you use and I've always hated using thin picks like some strummers, it just thins out the great bold and thickness of the acoustic guitar! There are many different picks...
This is your standard polish for daily use if you are one of those types that like to keep your electric guitar shiny and clean, fingerprint free. By this I don’t mean to clean a guitar that you just discovered in your uncle’s garage or basement from years ago, that amount of gunk takes a lot more than the Dunlop 65 to clean up with. The Dunlop ...
This is the industry standard go-to lemon oil. I don’t know any other brand or any other make to be honest with you. All I recognize is this Dunlop version. And I don’t know if there are others that vary too much from each other, actually I don’t think they do very too much from each other to begin with. However, why I chose this and stuck with ...
During my first few years of guitar playing, acoustic or electric, i was a masher. All I did was strum hard, I thought that was the only way to do it right and make the damn thing heard and sound good. As a result of also not knowing the right picks to use, I dropped a lot of picks while playing. So of course on one of my frequent trips to my lo...
People have been looking for alternatives to the Voodoo Lab power supply for quite awhile. However, none of them have really come close to what Voodoo offers at their price point. Dunlop decided to try their hand at it, but I really think they dropped the ball on this thing. The DC Brick is meant to power your pedals, and it does exactly that...
This has become my ultimate go to pick for fast riffing and heavy tones. Thick sounding, no flapping and takes forever to wear out! Way better than the original tortex standards that have been around for generations. These are a much better improvement in terms of how long they last. I think some people can notice tone differences between the ul...
These are my go to picks for fast riffing of any sort. If i have to play something complex and fast, these are the best! If you look at many other heavy metal guitar players you'll notice majority of them play with fairly heavy picks like the 1.14mm ones or so. It's thick enough to there isn't any of the flappyness and yet thin enough where the ...
