I think it’s fantastic that they ship them for free (for two packs or more) especially as they are quite expensive. I got 5 different packs, everything but the Delrins.
As picks go, they’re not bad. To me, they’re not exactly revolutionary.
I find that I can get the same kind of multi-gauge effect from a regular pick just by varying my grip as the Dava ones don’t go very flimsy anyway. If the Dava Pick could go a lot more flimsy than they currently do (and if they could make the jazz picks bendy too) then that would definitely make a massive difference.
I like the Jazz III ones. I find that the dimples on them offer no extra grip but the rubber ridges do, however there aren’t enough of them and they don’t cover enough of he surface area of the pick to be of much use. The fact that they are ever-so-slighty wider than the Jazz III’s I use makes them a bit easier to grip.
I think that the rubber on the Jazz and Grip Tip picks isn’t ‘grippy’ or ‘sticky’ enough to aid grip in a gig setting. Just feels too smooth. Needs more texture on the surface. Maybe they could experiment with making holes in them to improve grip further, along with the other stuff they already do. I guess it’s a lot to fit on one pick, but if you don’t ask you’ll never get.
I wish the Metal picks were pointier š The Precision Points and the Jazz have a great pointy end on them.
Once I’ve lost all of mine I’ll probably just go back to using Jazz III’s. Obviously if I was an endorsee i’d have no criticisms whatsoever š
Also, they need to sort their website out. If you mute the annoying guitar solo that starts automatically then you can’t hear the videos which is even more annoying.
Rick, if you read this, any chance you could pass my comments on to Dava?
