    pykmax... wth?

    I tried it, and found it somewhat limiting. With a regular pick, I don't even think about holding a pick, with the pykmax, it commands too much of my attention. Bottom line is I could get use to the feel, but the sound of it was unacceptable. It sounded thin and lifeless. Now it's just a...
