    I have to admit man I can already see the difference. I'm really glad I was able to turn you on to a different piece of gear to amp up your skill. It's good to see your wrists being less fatigued too. Pinches take a bit of time to get there with them. But I think you can understand best now why they have been my go to picks for 6 years

    I used the green Dunlop .94 nylon standard for over 30 years, I never really thought about changing picks until about 3 years ago. I switched to a Jazz 3 for about 2 years and noticed an increase in speed in my playing but it was too "thin" sounding on the strings for my liking, I used EB Everlast .88 for a few months and i liked the thicker scratchy sound on the strings but the tip was too round and it slowed me down a little bit, then I started using the Dunlop flow 1.5, it has the pointy tip for faster playing and the thicker scratchy sound I like and I get the chug that you would get from a rounder tip, its the perfect pick for me.I also have very little of the tip of the pick showing.

      Yeah I’m still using these picks now and I love them. So much accuracy and I just don’t have to think about what I’m doing anymore as they’re feel so natural

    Great video! Really goes deep into what these picks are all about! I have tried everything from 50 cent picks to 100 dollar picks and I really do love these. I want to get the 1.14 mm version becuase it is very close to the hetfield white fang picks which I love, but aren't great having hetfield's signature on them for when I am playing on stage and chucking a few out when the get burned out. I will definately be sticking with them a bit more than I have with other picks I have tested out though, they feel worth getting used to properly. I seem to wear out just about anything in a day or so becuase I play really similar stuff to you frequently, but these will get a few days at least for me.
    Keep up the great content

      And yeah I seem to grind picks out super quickly but these definitely last a lot longer than other ones I’ve tried

    These may not be my go-to picks (I use Bog Street Mini Beasts - 1.5 mm tri-sided jazz style picks with an aggressive grip), but these are ALWAYS my backups in case I can’t find my MBs for whatever reason. If they’re good enough for Brandon Ellis of The Black Dahlia Murder, they’re good enough for me 😆🤘

    really cool video! I actually tried these out recently. I accidentally bought the 1.5 mm and it's mega thick! haha it still feels great for metal stuff but the thick material also has me struggling on the strumming.
    I believe they do make a .88 mm version. I will try those as I really like them. I also hold the pick very close to my index and thumb fingers. Probably because I add a lot of pinch harmonics. There's a pick brand I really like called Snarling Dog Brain Picks. Very similar construction with the length and thumb grip. Only main difference is it is a nylon material. I'm not sure if they make them in the U.K though! if they do I'd recommend giving them a try :)

      Thanks man I appreciate it. And yes it seems like this type of pick is really geared towards guys like us who don’t have much of the pick showing. Like I said, I’m a really pinchy player too but yeah, it’s taking some getting used to for sure.

    Also with the strumming aspect. Relax out your wrist a little more to compensate for the extra.12mm and as corny as it sounds go with the flow of the pick 🤘

      I wouldn’t limit these to a certain style, band or genre. I’d go with what you find comfortable and what works for you. I’m still using these now and they’ve helped me massively with my accuracy regardless of what genre I’m playing. So yeah, find what works for you
