i like the Wegen picks also--at  least the one that i have. i was given a pair  of TF250 picks & i like them.  i use them sometimes 

very impressive

Thanks for the thoughtful reply, Kevin.  I might try Gravity at some point, but I'm pretty happy with the Wegen line of picks.  They have a number of good models but I'm partial to the Trimus 350 or 500.

My current favorite is Hot Grips .88 Green  different sizes = different colors. Seems easier to hold onto in those cold clubs or outside gigs. I'm gonna try the V-picks and Gator picks if I can find some local (Nashville)

Hi Robt:  yes, Vinnie sent me a couple V-Picks & i liked them too. matter of fact i ordered about 4 more after i got the samples, & i still use them on occasion.

they are both very similar--feel like they are made of the same material, same non-slip once theyve warmed up in my fingers, but to me it feels as tho the V-Picks are 'harder', or stiffer.  Vinnie goes so far as to say that his picks are heat treated, & Chris makes no such claim.  not that the Gravity picks are very flexable--they are stiff also, but in my fingers; & again, to me--the Gravity picks feel more 'lively' or alive.  i really dont have a good anology to put to this other than that.  i like the sound the Gravity picks help to produce better. as im mostly a strummer & dont do hi-speed sweep-picking runs, i dont need a pic k thats very stiff.  i would suggest you get one (or two) & see for yourself which one you prefer.  as ive said they are very similar.  hope this helps  :)

Kevin, those Gravity picks look a lot like a V-Pick I have. Are you familiar with the V-Pick, and if so how would you compare the two -- Gravity vs. V-Pick?  Obviously you like the Gravity better, but if you've tried both I wonder if you could compare size, feel, tone?

I don't use the V-Pick often, in fact I just found it again last night in the neck-bin in the case of I guitar I'm selling.  So I played with it last night and found I liked it.  I'm considering ordering more or, if people feel the Gravity pick is much better, that I might try that one instead.  Robt/
