Real Adamas Carbon Graphite Picks 2mm

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a bunch of these. Yes, you can find a company in europe that makes something similar, but Im a purist; why not use exactly what Phil Lesh, Mike Gordon and Trey use.
These are no longer being manufactured. I am asking $4 per pick shipped, min 4 picks per order please. Will last forever but several might be good as gifts or if you ever misplace your pick.

Been using Dunlop Adamas Graphite for 5 years and they have spoiled me for using anything else when i need to play with a pick.

How would these compare to standard celuloid Fender shapes and thickness?

Picks come in all thickness, usually written in mm on the pick. These are thick, easy to grip. They do NOT bend at all, and the material gives a different sound than plastic. Thus they are different.
I play a lot of Dead and Phish influenced material, and I love the tone of Phil and Mike, so I use these to help get that sound..

Please note that i revised the original post as a 4 pick minimum. Then at least it justifies the process, paypal, emails and postage.
Thanks for everyone's understanding.

Do you still have any of these left? I'd love to pick up 4 or 8 depending on how many are available.

I have one of these I got to see w. they were all about. These things are amazing. They are slippery. Have great punch, and are stiffer than a quarter!

I covet this pick, i make sure I know where it is at all times!

I will defo be picking up some of these from you.

No 1mm. But 2mm is twice as good.
