This pick came with the crapola Flanger Capo.. The grip is concave. \

Looks really big but I kind of like the idea. Have you given it a run yet?

I don't use flat picks, except occasionally on my resonator but I think this one seems useful. I would like the grip to be more like a Dunlop Maxi-Grip pattern.

My cellphone toolkit has a couple picks for opening covers that are a bit similar. but the 3 points at same thickness.

I wouldn't use the 1.0, but I'd definitely use the other two.

I can actually see this being useful to me. When I strum I prefer a softer pick (don't like to make a lot of noise) but when I flatpick I like something a bit sturdier. This becomes a problem (for me) when I play with my banjo buddy, I strum while he plays some lead then mid tune we'll switch, i play the lead while he does whatever it is that banjo players do. You can see how this could be a major, serious issue in my life! Could this be my answer? My final hurdle to nirvana?

You'll never reach Nirvana with that banjo player hangin' about.

My preferred pick thickness is 0.7 to 0.8mm. I can't understand the people that prefer 2mm thickness picks. That seems like playing with a boulder or stick! But that's why there are different picks, I guess.

Back in my electric days, I used an amber pic. One day it fell out of my wallet and cracked in half on the concrete

Here it is, sitting on the glass cover of Betta birthing nest.
