Great picks
These picks are very good suited for speedy picking.
I play fast metal riffs, and most pickups just end up sounding pretty scratchy when you do the fast stuff.
The pros:
They are solid and hard, with a sharp point, which makes for a clear attack sound without loss of speed. No flapping, like with most Dunlop picks, which I find pretty annoying for anything but acoustic guitar. They also seem to not wear down at all, which is surprising. Most picks are pretty quickly gone when you play 167 bpm speed- and thrash metal, but these almost feel like they are made of metal, but without the clangs that e.g. a coin would give.
Cons:
None, really, unless you mind a cannabis leaf on your picks, which for some people might give some annoying questions from squares or parents.
All in all, they are well made, nicely shaped, great picks, for a good price.

I love them
My favourite picks and go to since years. Switching between DUnlops and these ones, depending on what I play. Got one from a fellow musician because I was running out of picks... and I had to get hem for myself. The last incredibly long and the grip is amazing. COuld come in different colours though as I tend to loose them and never find them again ... That reminds me... i need to order new ones.

Fine but messy!
The grip is good, however because of the material, the dust they produce isn't unlike the plastic dust from ordinary pickups. It's much finer and I would be very careful with open pore finished guitars, as it could stick in the pores and get you ugly stains. Plus it stains your fingers as well. Would rather recommend the Dunlop Max Grips.

Some of the best picks out there. I've since moved on to different models, but I used these for some time, and my band's guitarist still swears by them consistently. Solid, hard, and great for playing heavier tunes!

Nice and different
I play gigs every week and sweat quite a lot and I always had a slight problem with the grip of the picks I used, especially during the end of the set when I'm really sweaty. These seem to stay with me for the whole gig and I've not had any issue with the pick slipping away from me. The hemp leaf design seems to aid for a better grip. The pointy edge is perfect for fast picking and accuracy. This is the first time I've used a pick with a pointy edge and it was very easy for me to switch from my regular Dunlops to these. The only con I have found is that they seem to wear out faster than other picks I used in the past

Best picks I've ever bought !
Highly durable, even over a long period of pratice.
I still use the same pick after six months or more and I practice a lot (4 hours a day), the first thing that eventually starts to decay is the painting, otherwise it's a great product.

Amazing
These picks are really really good to use. I feel like it is a great pick for people who like to play have thick riffs. It has a nice point to it which helps with accuracy when pick. I love these pick and these are pretty the only picks I use when I practice and play shows.

Carbon Nylons
Theses picks are both a blessing and a curse (for my guitars anyway). They feel great to hold and to play with and are exceptional for playing fast thanks to the pointed tip in comparison to a rounded one. they have a few problems though, one being is that they wear down kind of fast in my opinion and another one being is that they seem to build up static electricity on them somehow and when they touch a string it makes a buzzing sound sometimes (and i know its the pick and not the guitar becuse the buzz doesnt happen with tortex or even steel picks).

my favourite guitar picks
my favourite guitar picks
those are my favourite guitary picks and i use those kind of picks since more than a decade, for me they are the ideal picks, as they feel great, dont slip in the fingers, they have a good attack, but not as sharp and tingly as nylon ones. they sound a tiny bit more mellow to me.
Tough they wear off pretty fast, but that also depends on how hard you play and how often you play.
i use those 1.00 strength on my electric guitars and 0.85 strength on my acoustics.
if you are unsure, lets give it try, you have nothing too loose but you can gain experience
