Love the co-branding
As a fan of Zhang Nan, I had to buy these. They aren't just merchandise though; the quality is genuinely superior to standard plastic picks. Highly recommended.

Smooth tone production
The beveled edges really make a difference. My strumming sounds much cleaner and less scratchy than with my old picks. The anti-slip texture is subtle but effective.

Good value pack
Getting 12 picks in a nice tin is great value. I keep some in my gig bag and some at home. They are slightly stiffer than I expected, but I'm getting used to them.

Best picks for beginners
My guitar teacher recommended these, and now I understand why. The grip gives me confidence, and I don't drop them anymore when I get nervous playing in front of others.

Perfect grip for sweaty hands
I've tried dozens of picks, but these are the first ones that don't slip out of my fingers during long practice sessions. The Shadow Assassin design looks incredibly cool too.

Great durability
I've been using the same pick for three weeks of daily playing, and there is barely any wear on the tip. The smooth edge makes string crossing very easy for a beginner like me.
Q: What is the exact thickness measurement?
A: These picks are precisely 0.71 mm thick, which is classified as a medium gauge, offering a balance between flexibility and control.
Q: Does the anti-slip texture wear off over time?
A: No, the micro-etched texture is molded into the material itself, not coated on top, so it remains effective throughout the life of the pick.
Q: Is the tin case durable enough for travel?
A: Absolutely. The included tin is made of sturdy metal designed to protect the picks from crushing in your guitar case or backpack.
Q: Are these picks eco-friendly?
A: While they are highly durable to reduce waste, the polymer composite is not currently biodegradable, though the metal tin is fully recyclable.
Q: Are these picks suitable for electric guitar as well as acoustic?
A: Yes, the medium thickness and smooth edge profile make them versatile for both electric and acoustic guitars, working well for rhythm and lead playing.
