Since very recently i discovered playing with metal picks. I don't want anything else anymore. The sound and feel is awesome. This HB package is very much worth the little bit of money they cost. To keep 'm from sliding from my fingers i hammer some buts in 'm with a screw...for a tighter grip. very pleased!

Metal picks - you like them or you don't
This is my first foray into metal picks. Since I have no real point of comparison, I'm not sure what would really differentiate these from other metal picks. They're much thinner than what I am used to, but just as rigid (I like thick picks). I'm not a "heavy"picker so I can't see that they're causing any undue wear on my strings. I kind of LIKE the attack that I'm hearing from them. They're much less expensive than other brands, so I guess that's really their key selling point.
If you're curious about metal picks (or already love them), these are definitely the place to start!

Good picks for edge of breakup sound
I use them on my Tele with thick strings (12) and amp set to edge of breakup.For that purpose they sound great.Being made of stainless steel,they are not flexible,even though they are thin.It's really easy to dig hard into the strings and get distortion(think AC/DC or mid-tempo punk).Now the cons.
Cons : Not for everybody. Some fast metal and hardcore players will find lack of pick flexibility too much for them.Stainless steel wears out your strings more.They don't have the greatest grip.
All in all i'm satisfied but if you need more flexible metal pick i suggest you look into the copper picks.

Feel the scratchiness
Great quality picks, but unfortunately they are too thin, thin enough to go deep between 4, 5 and 6 strings' wound. It slows you down and give the scratchiest sound you can get from guitar. With same material and quality, but increased thickness they would be *much* better.

Love theses picks sound great on a 12 string if you like a bright sound. However you will need to change you strings more often with heavy use.

Specialised use, but sometimes exactly what I need
I have picks in a variety of material that I choose based on tonal requirements. These provide a bright and aggressive scratch that I sometimes use to get an acoustic guitar cutting through the mix... They can really make a difference!!

Bright Picks
These produce a bright sound, more in The Treble end. They work fine, no string damage.

Rating for: Harley Benton Stainless Steel Pick Set
Les bords des médiators dont trop net, ce qui fait que ça accroche pas mal des cordes et donc provoque un son de frottement..

Good picks but a bit hard to play with them for a long time
The quality / price is amazing, but as a beginner user of stainless steel picks I have to say in the beggining can be a bit hard to get use to them. I used them to play with my acoustic guitar, and the sound is very metallic. Also are very slippery between your fingers when you've been playing for a long time because of the sweat.
Are very thin and durable (due to they're made of stainless steel), and I always have one in my wallet because of that. Once you get used to them and the "metallic" sound they make, they are amazing picks
