Picks again........Those little plastic, nylon, metal tools.

Whaddup Synners!

So I have been playing around with different picks ever since the Rona stopped the world.


And I settled on the Dunlop flow picks since then. But I always struggled with finding my pick of destiny!
And for a while I thought I found it, a 4.20 mm Behemoth of a pick.

Whilst that pick was great for leads, it really was not good for strumming, and the price of those picks for a struggling musician was also a con.

Thus, I convinced myself to go with a more traditional 2 mm pick from the same line of Dunlop flows. And I tried it for a year. Did not work.

So now, having recently played some funk for fun, I noticed that thinner picks, 0.73 to 1mm usually really help me strum and let loose for the funk.

Finding that situation I decided, that I have not a one pick first all for me currently at this step of my journey. Thus, I chose to get em all, thankfully there are only 11 non-signature flow picks, feeling kinda like a pokemon master over here.

But why all, you might ask?

Because I want to use the pick without having to worry about a replacement. Thus as a future investment, I got 6 of each, and as I love heavier picks I got 12 of them XD

That’s all.

Dang so many! I haven't tried thicker than 2mm, I do like them but overall prefer .73. I have a hard time getting good pick slide sound from the smooth side of the 2mm ( with the alligator face ), it has different texture. Sometimes feels like hitting the strings too hard with the denser picks, although I would probably like the around .80 something mm. Had one but lost it

Yeah....I feel you brother. Picks are a whole new world...and so annoying. But a necessary evil nonetheless

The jouney to The One is an expensive one. I may be able to provide some assistance.

There’s a Pick Of Destiny for sale on reverb for almost $800. That will totally make you play better

Behold, a 20.3mm pick
My bandmate ordered this along with a glow in the dark 12.7.
It feels absolutely ridiculous to strum with and I had to share with everyone

Pick of Density, I prefer to call them plectrums
