A fast, great sounding pick with great control.

This pick truly improved my control, sound and speed.

Compared to the regular V-Picks Screamers, this material is slightly different. It feels a bit more slippery and slightly more durable (not entirely sure if i's more durable as I haven't used it quite as long as my other Screamers)

Upsides:

+Clear, crisp tone

+Pretty loud

+Durable (about 0 scratches after months of playing, also doesn't break)

+Very fast

+Easy, great pinch harmonics

+Great control

+3 tips!

Downsides:

-Though it is durable, the points lose sharpness pretty fast

-Less crisp and loud when sharpness is reduced

-Pretty expensive for such a small piece of plastic. But the investement is well worth it!

Mixed feeling. It works but need time to get used
alexlotta 17.10.2022
I was curious to try that brand.That pick is BIG for me , but strangely is comfy for his size .I can see using the pick weight to get easier some solos "zakk wylde" style , when you want to dig in in some strings letting doing that "nerve" strumming in between .Very good balance in hand .
Mixed feeling as i dunno if it convinces me to use it as regular pick.
VERY SHARP points ( 3 of them so more durability ) gets really high screaming pinch harmonics .
Since this pick 3 edge points, lets say is 4xTIMES more costly than a regular pick, so well is reasonable ( though 5€ range would be a better choice and easier to get more to try i.m.o) .
Rest of mileage about , is personal taste

I was skeptical. One pick is more expensive than a set of Jazz III... why? It makes coffee while I playing or what? It is playing instead of me? Ehh, not.
For the first touch it was a bit odd. I'm a Jazz III fan.
The Screamer is much bigger, but lighter than the Jazz, so it has a very different feeling. Feels like a mixture of glass and plastic. Overall, it has a good touch and the grip is very good. So far, no drop .
The sound. I think the difference is very noticeable. The name "Screamer" is quite accurate. Its easier to pick the pitch harmonics and they have a higher pitch. More glassy, crystal-like extra harmonics can be noticed. I not recommend for blues, too bright. Good for metal.
I've been using for a month and I didn't notice any loss in sharpness.

I think it worth the money, I like it. Probably I will buy a few more and try the other shapes what they offer. But so far... the Screamer became my main pick.

Lighter than you think

Thick pick with 3 sharp edges, excellent for galloping and fast picking.
It's made of some sort of light plastic, so it's lighter than I'd imagine for such a thick pick.
It's comfortable to hold but there is no rubberized or textured surface, to improve grip in case you have sweaty hands it'll be slippery.

I've only played a couple of days with it, so I can't attest about durability.
