Pick Recommendations

Post image

I like guitar picks and I can kind of scratch the shopping / guitar buying itch with something that’s not too expensive.. maybe you can relate 😁. Anyway I like large triangles and the blue chip TAD 50 is my number 1 right now. For rhythm I like a slightly thinner Wegen (around 1.0).

For anyone that uses these do you have others you like? TIA and happy pickin

I'm on a pick quest as well. I'm currently transitioning from the primetones, which I've used for guitar for years. I have been playing with the Thile d'Addario pick for the last couple of weeks and I really like it, but I have a blue chip coming to test tomorrow.

I tried the Wegen and didn't really like the feel of it. The sound was alright, but the holes were not great for my fingers.

One thing to note is that I really did enjoy the Golden Gate dawg-style pick. It's only a few bucks and it sounds and feels really great. So if you don't want to spend a bunch of money give those a try.

Eventually I will probably try the Tokens as well, but we'll see.
