Plastic vs titanium pick

[jutty17]

When I ran out of picks at one point (guitarist had NOTHING to do with it, at least according to him) I used a nickel for a night. It sounded awesome, but I was afraid I might do bad things to the strings so I just did it the one time.

Well, I have to ask... is this the best pick for metal?

For THIRTY-TWO DOLLARS, regardless of any perceived sonic advantage, just like any pick, I'd lose it . . . . . No Thanks.

I can buy almost a lifetime supply of my Usual Suspect picks . . . .

. . . for 32 bucks, and I won't stay up nights blaming myself for losing a 32 dollar pick.

If you're happy, I'm happy.

That's fair, the picks are more like $20 (Metal Tones Mini Titanium - 1 Guitar Pick) but still a bit pricey for a pick. I got a pick holder on my bass where the Ti pick is stashed at all times.

Why is it that Fender can make a tort pick like that, but they can't make a tort pickguard like that?

Is the center inlay abalone?

I have a Ti pick a friend made me that was a gov. contractor.
He told me in order to punch the hole through the middle it was a 90 ton press to make it happen.
He also mentioned it took forever to sand it down and finish.

My only warning is be careful, I used to break more strings with my Ti pick.

I believe the inlay is mother-of-pearl!

$32 !!

More like $20 (Metal Tones Mini Titanium - 1 Guitar Pick), still a bit pricey, but also should last you forever.
