i'd go fot tortex picks heavy. the texture of the pick prevents it from slipping from your fingers even after downing 4 redhorse before getting on stage to play. hehehe! peace

ouy andyan ka pa pala haha. Wait i'm still uploading, err better pictures hehe. gimme 5mins...

ok a not-so-professional review of mine:

1. Tonewise: yes. it will actually "change" your tone. I used the word change coz we have different tastes regarding tone. If I can just describe it, it gives FAT tone. REALLY FAT. Yung tipong buong buo yung tunog. for me, its a positive.  :-) Additionally, pinch harmonics is verrrrrrrrrrrrry easy to execute!

2. Playability: dito ako medyo nadisappoint. Well I got sweaty hands (and fingers). At the very moment you hold it, its ok, it will really stick to your hands/fingers. I gave it around 1-2mins noodling with my guitar, sweat building up, and it somewhat "dumudulas" e. TSK na tetempt tuloy ako lagyan ng grooves yun picks (but I won't haha ang mahal e!)

3. Speed: AVERAGE. Well ang maganda sa kanya, pag dumikit na sya sa strings, nag glide talaga sya! Which is really good, specially if naka slant ang style ng picking mo ("slicing" the strings). Di ko lang talaga ma ramdaman yun immediate increase in speed kasi nga sa (2)

Overall: Its an ok pick, for me. May ilang araw pa para malaman ko if this is really my pick. I'll give it a full month hehe

Here are some more pictures:

Thin picks goes well with acoustics indeed, specially when you do a lot of heavy strumming with it.. 8-)
