V-PicksMummy Guitar Pick

I was a little skeptical about getting these even though I thought they were the ones that were cheap and made of bad plastic but when I got them. They were the real deal! They felt good and have little lines on them for great grip I got the 3 pack Thanks V-picks! Ps: they also look kool :)

Started playing guitar in 1987. Played on and off since, the last 8 years playing a lot more. I've never been one to get excited about picks. I usually look for a heavy gauge pick that has some surface that may prevent it from slipping around too much when playing. I've had some that were ok. Slippage was still a thing, though maybe to a slightly lesser degree. I went to order some specific extra thick picks on Amazon.com and saw this mummy pick by V-PICS pop up. Was a little intrigued and ordered one along with the other picks I ordered. I had previously never said the words, "I love this pick" before. I LOVE THIS PICK. It does not slip. At all. It has a slight grainy edging around its perimeter which gives your picking attack a subtle scratchy personality that I also fell in love with. For the first time I'm actually excited about using a pick. I want my Mummy.

This is the best of the picks I have bought, after I discovered V-Picks (all of which are superior quality). I actually bought the Johnny Hyland pick (which is based on the Mummy) first, but apart from the red color, I don't see what that has on the original. The photos don't show what the "ghost" aspect of the pick is, but it's just like a rough sanding effect around the edges, which creates a scratchy sound and superior grip. This pick really stays put in your fingers, and feels very comfortable for a thick plectrum.For a thin pick, I'd recommend the Euro II or the Tradition series, but the Mummy is the bee's knees in my book, since I normally like a nice, chunky pick. Definitely worth the money, and it arrived fairly quickly. Note that there is an unavoidable shipping charge.

This imparts a scratchy tone when held the right way. The thickness is perfect and the grip is really very good. But I do find that this pick is, width and length wise, a little too large for my ideal pick. I wish they made this exact pick except with just under a 1" width and under a 1 and 1/6th" length. It's my second favorite pick, really solid with fantastic sound and grips perfectly, even looks awesome. They just need a smaller profile with the same thickness and design for my ideal pick.

Spend some money trying V Picks. I have played for 48 years and finding the right pick has made a significant difference to my playing. I always thought picks were just a small piece of the equation, but getting the right one makes a difference. The Mummy was right for me, but it may be a different configuration for you - but spend some effort to find it.

All V pics are great accessories.But I like the "Isoloese" shaped ones the best. That way there is no one wrong direction to hold them.

Absolutely my number 2 pick now. I'm a cellulose primarily. I keep filing down fender heavy to a JazzXL or file downs Viper. The point on the viper was just a smudge too thin for heavier gauge strings for ME. MY .52 just didn't care for it. Love the colors.

Don't know if these are for every guitar player, but they work for me. Noticeable improvement in speed & accuracy. I got a few other v-picks and like them all.

Only good for Rythm
