FenderPremium Celluloid 351 Shape Picks, Thin, Abalone, 12-Pack

These were a bit smaller than I was expecting but when I measured up against the more triangular hard pick I normally use there wasnt much difference in the actual length. Came in plain packaging, slits cut into a sheet of paper with picks inserted. I have used these picks now for a few weeks and they are just right. I have the thinner type also with the Fender name on them and they are great for learning guitar. Have to say that the fender name logo has worn off with use. I found there is a tendency for the pick to slip a bit when your fingers gets warm.

Usually go for teardrop picks, but delighted to say that these wedge shaped picks really deliver.They are medium, so truly flexible in play, without being too stiff. They're easy to grip and play well whichever side you choose. I'd love to believe the sound is better with these picks...but I'm not best placed to make that judgement. I'll take any help I can get! Great set, great price and I'm very happy.

I decided to experiment with different pick thicknesses, having played Martin heavy gauge picks for years. What a difference. The medium gauge really brings my guitar to life. I did try Martin medium gauge but the Fenders sound slightly better.Downside - I would rather not have to buy a 12-pack, but I guess it's not worth arguing over a couple of pounds.

But it wasn't what I wanted, I misjudged the photo and thought it was a triangular-shaped plectrum when it's a typical electric guitar drop-shaped plectrum. My bad as they say in the business. I've re-ordered the correct shape since.

So when you see that you can get a pack of 50 or 100 picks for cheep as a bag of peanuts give them a miss as these around the same price only for 12 are spot on. They are nice to handle, smooth to use, sounds silly i know but they have an edge over other picks.... I also bought the heaver gauge ones which are also nice to play with.

Absolutely love these celluloid picks. They look good with the mottled finish, they're very light and flexible and seem to go on forever. I lose more than I break and they're always being snuffled by others! Nice to hold and I like to think they improve the sound. Excellent buy.

Picks are a very personal choice for guitarists. It depends on so many things. The type of music you play, the guitar, the weight of strings. For playing country, jazz and ‘Doc Watson’ rags, with a 12 - 53mm string, we like these best.

What can I say... If you look for a versatile pick, between fast rhythm and soloing, this 0,60mm is my choice.For heavy riffs I did start by using 1mm and more, but now the most I'm using is 0,71mm... and the less is 0.50mm.That's why most of the time I'm keeping only with this fantastic 0,60mm pick. Apart from versatility, the durability is also great.But anyway... it all depends on each guitar player and his style. For me, those ones are just fantastic!
