Customer reviews about Pickboy Carbon Nylon Pick M Set 0,88

My "go to" picks

Andrew4413 02.05.2016

I have used Pick Boy Carbon (0.88mm) for so long now that nothing else will do. I use these picks with a variety of guitars, electric and acoustic. In the case of the electrics I use these picks with 6, 7 and 8-sting instruments.

One of the things I like about the Pick Boy Carbon is the material they are made out of. The carbon nylon is comparatively hard and the 0.88mm picks are actually very rigid without being too thick.

You won?t be surprised to hear that the picks wear reasonably quickly with 8-string instruments but that?s to be expected given the thickness and abrasiveness of the bottom strings. I doubt any other nylon or plastic material will fare much better.

For me though the biggest selling point was always the overall shape of the pick. If you compare these picks to a Dunlop Standard Nylon you?ll find the Pick Boy Carbons shorter with a less pronounced point. Back in day I actually used to modify standard picks by paring them down to this shape with a blade. Jazz picks are shorter still ? too short for me - so this shape offers a good compromise. I find standard picks clumsy and jazz picks lack power.

I?ve never had a problem gripping the Pick Boy Carbons either. The logos stamped on both sides of the picks are raised above the surface offering good purchase.

I love these picks and use them all the time.

Great Product

Daniele Lupo 16.06.2020

I have always like these picks, a very good grip, they feel light and handy and provide me the right attack I am looking for. I have also bought the 1.00 an 0.88 versions just to have a feel of which one better fits my needs. I gave it a 4 in durability because, depending on how aggressive you are, they can get their tip wore off fairly quickly.

My best friends for 10 years

Sharp tip - for nano precise and fast picking. I love the attack and intonation from these carbon/nylon picks.
The ultra sharp tip wears down quite fast though, so I usually order 50pc at the time - and I do so happily :-D

Very stiff and durable

Rogueny 12.03.2018

These picks won't break easily. They are very stiff, so they won't bent like for instance a dunlop pick. The grip is decent, but they could have added more grip to these picks. Missed opportunity. Still, great picks. I use them for solo's and hardrock music. These are not suited for acoustic playing. On my western they sound dead and cold.

Try it! You will not regret it!

Szymon 27.04.2017

I mainly play 9-46 strings so there is no need for heavy gauge picks. It's the same thickness as dunlop green picks, however this one is more stiff.
Also the grip on these is amazing. Another thing I've noticed straight away is improved sound. It's more focused and detailed. Just a simple guitar pick but it does make a difference.

Durable and with lots of grip

scorbetta 09.08.2018

Very good pick, with lots of grip and a good cut. A slightly smaller pick would be appreciated, though. You can use it easily for fast picking as well.

Good picks

MeDVen 09.09.2020

Very good pickups with longer lifetime than the others, which was made with plastic. 0.88 thickness for me is enough for playing rhythm and fast passages. One point can be not so good, it's a relief picture from both sides. They're rough, if you play a lot, it might provoke to appear some calluses on your fingers.

I found my pick!

LooneyLoo 09.09.2019

I just bought a pack of these just to try them out and was quite amazed. I used to use Dunlop Tortex Standard Guitar Picks for years and I have now switched to these. The grip is really good but the thing that impressed me most is how smooth they feel and sound. There seems to be minimal resistance when contacting the strings which makes playing much easier, especially if you're playing fast shred stuff. Not as durable as Tortex though...

My favorite pick!

JPROCK 25.09.2019

I love the feel of this pick, its a bit sharp a thing I love it helps me to play fast anb be quite accurate, I think they're specially good for rock, hard rock, the material is quite strong in this gauge it's quite a hard pick. The carbon nylon fiber gives it a tight sound and its quite durable and strong. They are a bit more expensive than other brands like Dunlop Tortex (I love the rifles) but are worth trying!
