OMG ! OMG ! OMG ! OMG !
I just tried these ! And I loved them .... Just Beware, they're "spendy" ....
It usually takes me a few hours or even days to bond with a new pick, especially if it's quite a bit different than what I'm used to ….
That WAS NOT the case with the Black Diamond picks ! Literally from the "first strum" or "first licks" I played the pick felt very, VERY natural in my hand. No adjustment to my picking technique at all ! The tone was what I expected, no unpleasant artifacts ( pick chirp, etc; ). Even "pinch-harmonics" were nice and clear …. This is a pretty big point for me, as some picks can make them very shrill and piercing.
And I love the sharper tip radius !
I've got the standard, beveled, and jazz styles. Love them all. Glad you discovered these too. You're right about the cost, but when your pick never wears out you save money in the long run.
