Planet Waves Black Ice Guitar Picks, 10 pack, Extra-Heavy

good for light playing not for metal

The material, the size, everything is pretty good.If you're into fast picking, then Black Ice will be very useful for you.I will definitely buy this again for sure....🤘🏼

The quality of plactrum is qood and small but packagings is not satisfactory i was expecting more of a standard package for this brand.

Now this looks like the original pack.Even though there were only 91picks, this doesn't feel like it has been tampered with.Unlike the last pack I received.Great

I have received old and used picks. The inner packaging of the product was torn and it seems that these old picks were put inside and then a tape was used to re-seal. It does not feel brand new at all.All the picks have a white-ish tint on them which suggests that they are not at all new and some are even used picks which were put inside the package.Very disappointed! I wish there was an option to give 0 stars.

Excellent value product. Duralin has a magical grip and silk smooth feel as opposed to its nylon counterparts. Must buy for all thicknesses.

Best of the best

Been using the Dunlop 1.5 for ever and just tried this on a whim because I saw Jeff MacErlain using them and he said there great for dynamic playing! Well he’s not wrong, now my go to pick! Can play super soft then dig in and has great dynamic range! Doesn’t move in my hand at all and great for chords, lead and fast (ish) picking! Very impressed ! Looks similar to a jazz 3 but much more comfortable

These are thin jazz shaped picks made from a matt tortex-like material. Sized between jazz III and Jazz III xl.Having come from acoustic Fingerstyle guitar to learn electric, I became quickly frustrated with using a pick and the how much harder it was to get the variety of tone I was used to with my fingers. I soon built up a tin of picks of every size, thickness and material in the search for what I wanted.I settled on Dunlop jazz IIIs for single note work , but was still unhappy with the standard Dunlop nylon picks I was using for rhythm work. Whatever gauge I used, they weren’t quite right. The tortex equivalent were slightly bigger and even worse.I wanted something a similar size and shape to the jazz IIIs but much thinner, slightly bigger and with slight flex for rhythm. Instantly much easier to play with, easier to handle to achieve more variety of tone. Very happy.Having come from nylon picks, I miss the raised grip, but these are thin enough to hole punch cleanly and easily which helps.I also sometimes cheat and use red dax wave and groom wax (very stiff hair wax with a high melting point - way cheaper than gorilla snot) to add that extra bit of tack!

I was hoping that these picks would be slightly larger than a Dunlop Ultex Jazz III. But they are slightly smaller.

I'll admit, I first heard of these picks through Tosin Abasi, and being a fan-boy, I started using them myself. Tosin has moved on to some other brand now but once I started using these bad boys, I couldn't care less for any other gauge or brand of plectrum. The matte finish gives a solid grip, despite being soft to the touch, and the durability of one pick, no matter how much I abuse it, has been equal to none. I am a very happy customer and don't see myself ever changing brands.

Quality picks at a decent price.
