V for Vendetta! Great show for thinkers out there..

"The material I use is sounding very close to tortoise , but it is lasting much longer."

quote from the Wegen site..

for those that love the tortoise sound.. go for it!

muffled and thick.. minimal squeek and click..

Vpicks lose at that.. there will always be a compromise :(

Good day to all, no Monday blues ya.."

HAHAHA!!!

THEN CIA LAT!!!..

Each pick has a diff sound.. due to the material density and hardness or thickness..

then what?

different girls for diff days? cannot laa!!!! wuahaha...

This pick is interesting because of the workmanship and hence sound produced.. my typical tortex black and hard ones are still used.. in gigs when i'm afraid to lose my 15 dolla pick keke.. or in the studio when i want a thinner sound..

and for acoustic strumming use thin ones coz u want the acoustic guitar sound thin and crisp.. all about usage ba..

tone is 30% of everything else.. it makes up the speaking voice of the medium.. the guitar tone in this case..

hence each has its use.. fingers. picks.. coins.. tongue (like crazy jimmi hendrix).. finger nails..

Its just how you wanna speak using the guitar.

I'm no pro.. but understanding an instrument how it works and what works best in a situation makes u an understanding player..

know the battle ground before you go into war! haha..

Plexu glass like material - its crazy.. but i have experienced th difference.. i know it exists :)

Some of my student came back with entire packs of picks.. all diff hardness and material just for their strumming lesson?!!! crazy... i respect..

experimenting and learning along the way is always fun!! so grab a pack of picks now! jokes..

kidding la. try strumming ur piano keke"

and yes.. sg has so lil things.. but..

went to thailand shop for 3 days (a holiday back then in 2008).. bought back the black telecaster.. almost a wasted trip!!!!!!

Thailand too even got less guit shops than SG!! so must appreciate liaoz keke..

Tried Malaysia.. crazy prices and lil shops too.. hard to find..

How I wish its the US culture here for music!"

Yep.. they produce one series with a buffed surface.. another matt.

The matt surface ones are for a "rougher" sound.. grinds the strings for abit more "Bite"..

I've tried all.. couldn't bear to buy them all.. expensive la to collect!! haha.. hence bought 2 which suited my usage.. as friend of mine imports guits and VPicks.. so I had lovely opportunities to try ALL of them! Need more money to rob him of one of his guits! ARgh!!!!

Below are the picks I have for recording and playing (not the look gd collection aye.. workhorses to do my art).. Hope this is helpful to those that play or wanna understand more about guits and tone in relation to the pick or fingers! And pls dont forsake the fingers and chop them off saying you dont need them.. coz fingers are the priceless picks!!!!!!!

Jess..
I know a friend who carries them.. if want.. email me :)

In my pick keychain always 3 picks minimum.

1 V pick Diamond
1 Acoustic pick
1 tortex small hard pick

So i got 3 women in my pocket? jokes la! haha

Jess..
suprisingly these picks improve technique..

Thick picks phycologically affect us.. we no need grab so tight.. hence loosen the right hand grip..

when practice i ALWAYS use the V Pick Diamond.. when i change back to a normal one or the thinner Vpick.. more relaxed :)

About the grip thing they say on the web? eh.. not really la.. haha.. dunno..

Oh my goodness. shouldnt be promoting a product here. But gosh. ITZ GREAT. been 8 mth since the change from a traditional pick to a Vpick.. if i lose a v pick i sure will get it replaced.. but the traditional (good) pick cant be eradicated. Most neutral and has proven it's versatility over the years..

try strumming on a Vpick.. to me erhem.. its bad....

try a Vpick on individual notes of heavy palm muting..

IT ROKZ!!
