Re: Gravity Picks feedback
Chris, thanks for the pick!
I use a Dunlop Tortex .88mm (green) for electric and acoustic.
I took the Classic XL to band practice. We were working on new music, so I didn't get to fully test-drive it on a song.
I alternated back and forth between my Tortex and the Gravity picks. The Tortex was slightly darker sounding (which I like). The Tortex has a "scratch" to its attack. The Gravity, OTOH, has more "bite" to the attack, and it seems to bring out some higher harmonics in the notes.
Strengths:
1. Good, fast note attack.
2. Pick harmonics were EASY to hit.
3. Notes seemed to have more harmonic frequencies, resulting in a more full-bodied sound.
4. The pick is SOLID.
5. The beveled edge made tremolo picking much easier and cleaner.
6. No "scratch" sound to the pick attack. Quite clean attack.
Weakness:
1. (at least for me) The notes are slightly brighter sounding.
Bottom line: I replaced my Tortex pick on my main axe with the Gravity pick. Recommended.
