Pros
- Parent context: Jazz III XL is the ultimate pick Reply: So accurate lol. I always say once you get used to the jazz 3 a regular pick feels like clown shoes
- You won’t be able to play with a regular pick anymore. I switched 20 years ago and every time I try a regular pick it feels like I’m using a debit card
- Anything other than a Jazz III feels like I’m playing with a Dorito.
- Give yourself a week with them and then check back on this. You’ll probs notice a lot more control.
- Jazz III for fast stuff.
Cons

- When they arrived I thought I had received or ordered the wrong thing, it seemed like most of the picks weren’t even normal size… then I realized the ‘normal’ sized picks were the XL versions and I immediately questioned the judgment of...

I enjoy then for really precise stuff, their shortness and thickness makes them very responsive to every movement of your hand and arm, but I will admit, I don't prefer them for power chords, or skanking, , basically anything that requires picking more than one note at a time, lol.

When they arrived I thought I had received or ordered the wrong thing, it seemed like most of the picks weren’t even normal size… then I realized the ‘normal’ sized picks were the XL versions and I immediately questioned the judgment of EVERY single commenter on that instagram post who said it was so amazing etc etc…. Maybe if I was like a hobbit or something I’d love these picks but what the hell man they’re tiny and they suck!
