See above. I am "picky" about picks.... :-D Hard to imagine, but there are no downsides to this pick. Many others are good to exceptional in one way or another but always have a deficiency; well not this pick at least for me.
Sound
The sound is pure, in other words, it doesn't color the sound at all. No scratchy, dull, thin, etc. All you hear is the string as it sounds on the guitar. I use the 58mm red.
Features
Very good grip that gets better during a session and is very good at the start. Exceptional control and has the best release of any pick (hundreds) I've used. Very free, without any fight to make notes fly.
Ease of Use
Best pick available IMO. Pick release is immediate and smooth. Flex doesn't change with temperature increase, that's paramount. Every pick has a learning curve, but this pick is easy to get comfortable. I use the 58mm red.
Quality
Lasts a long time. Each pick is exactly alike. I honestly can't find a fault with this pick. I use the red 58mm.
Value
Top notch products in all categories.
Manufacturer Support
No experience......

I don't care about sex appeal. If I did, I'd wax my bald head.

"No more flingin' picks!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I currently use these picks the most out of about 10 other kinds. I just the the thickness I got and the non-slick surface of these picks.
Features
The pick is somehow made with something that makes it really easy to hold onto. I used to have a pick go flying once in a while, but now with this pick, I don't really ever drop my pick.
Quality
It has an alligator head on it, so it's cool automatically. I bought the purple ones, and I think I've only worn one out in about three months. However, I might have lost some, but that's my fault.
Value
12 picks for a couple bucks. Definitely worth it.

It has an alligator on it! I love it!

"GATOR GRIP PICKS RULE!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I will never use another pick for as long as I live.
Features
I use the 2.0mm picks and they are super easy to hold! They never shift in my fingers or slip out! Not to mention, they last forever.
Quality
The picks are consistent. They all grip well in my fingers and the thickness if each and every pick in the pack is 2.0mm!
Value
They cost as much as other picks on the market and you get so much more.
The Wow Factor
They're black AND have an alligator on them! Very cool.

"Gator Grip"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
It's awesome. If you like something thinner than 1.5 and don't wanna buy this (I don't know why the hell you wouldn't) I recommend dunlop tortex. BUY DUNLOP!
Sound
Uh...sound?? It doesn't have that annoying *click* thing that some picks do, if thats what you mean.
Features
I like really thick picks so I've only used 1.5 and 2.0 (I prefer 2.0) but they do what they say. They stay in your fingers. No slip or anything.
Ease of Use
Very easy to use. It can be summed up in 3 steps: (1. You pick it up (2. Put it between your thumb and your pointer finger (3. Press the pick against strings Jesus, ease of use! What is this?
Quality
Awesome. Never breaks like those damn fender picks.
Value
C'mon, it's only a few bucks!
The Wow Factor
Oh, that pick is sooooooo sexy. What a stupid question.

"White-powder = Awesome Grip!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Buy the pack now and you won't regret 'em, i HIGHLY recomend these things, the other fender picks i have used are just crappy to me now, since my fingers got used to these.! I RECOMEND 1.5 for serious SHREDDERS!
Quality
These are very comfortable picks and they stay right at your hand, pinch harmonics are done with ease, and my sweeping is much toneful! They last long, and i have been using the same pick since for ever! The white powder coating is awesome, the feel of it is very addicting, though they may not last as long, but the pick is still grippy after it's all worn off!.
Value
BUY EM NOW!
The Wow Factor
White Powder Coating, DELICOUS!
