r/GuitarPicks

Since they do not sell them anymore I am trying to locate that pick but without the dime stuff on it. It wasn't a show pick. They sold these back in the day. I am down to like 3 or 4 and if you look at the price on ebay for them... just don't.

Anyway I've tried the quite a few picks and off the top of my head I cannot remember which ones but Tortex and really anything I could grab from .77 to 1.05 or whatever the Hetfield White Fang picks are.

These are just my holy grail picks. I don't know why but they just are the sweet spot that I love. and the finish doesn't slide etc. etc. etc.

I'm hoping someone knows what they are really and I am able to find them. I have emailed Washburn in the past and they don't even know.

[update]

I have contacted Washburn and they said “we have no idea anything about those. Take some calipers and measure the thickness”

I contacted Dunlop and they said that they asked around and they did not make them and to contact Washburn.

I have reached out to Dime’s guitar tech and have not received a reply yet.

Not the usual topic, but I used an old magic card to hold a pick in my wallet. Somehow I never have a pick when I head to the guitar store, so this is my emergency solution

Started collecting about 7 months ago, I’d say a pretty decent starter collection

Is this Metallica guitar pick real ?

Ive been to plenty of concerts but only recently started getting in the pit/front etc. Pretty happy to finally have some after years of nothing! Lol

I was looking into these and I heard they are nice.

UPDATE: I got one, I find it to be very nice and articulate, would definitely recommend.

I've tried looking everywhere, it has a cursive V inside of the circle for the logo?

My grail of guitar picks.

I got a few of these at shows and the gravity is the newest one.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share some insights I’ve gained from my collection of guitar picks. Like many guitarists, I’ve spent years trying to find "the one," accumulating a variety of styles along the way. Recently, after seeing them just hidden away with my guitar supplies, I decided to put them all in a container and rotate through them constantly while playing/practicing, switching every once in a while.

This experiment led to a few realizations:

1.  Don’t overthink it: They are all great in their own way. Each has a unique character, sound, and feel, and any of them could be "the one."

2.  Play softer: Rotating picks encouraged me to play with a more relaxed grip. This has resulted in better dynamic control, cleaner playing, and improved precision and speed.

3.  Adaptability: By using different picks, I’m learning how to achieve consistent performance regardless of the tool, which has been incredibly beneficial for my playing.

I don’t want to make this too long, but I’d love to help other enthusiasts. If you have questions about specific pick types (all I own are shown in the picture) or want comparisons to help with your next purchase, please ask away! I will answer as many questions as I can to help the community, and anyone going on Google trying to find info about them, hopefully, this thread helps!

To my knowledge the only pick Mike Gallo threw out that night, which was the final show of that leg of Sepultura's final tour. The scruffiness and upside down zombie add so much character IMO.
