!) The Papa" tortoise pick & the other is the ' Gibson Wedge" pick ( blk triangle) also was wondering if there's a slippage problem with the Gibson."

I got one of the papa picks in yesterday and out of the bag as is, I wasn't impressed at all. I spent some time working on a bevel and polishing and will have to spend some more picking time with it but after the bevel work and a few minutes, it's a good sounding pick. Good tone and volume. It's a keeper.

The Cafe is starting to feel like the camera geek forums where undertalented photographers endlessly discuss the latest zoom from that manufacturer, the one with the reverse-flow image stabilisation and ultra-wide ultrasonic f-stop technology and NASA-inspired lens coatings and filter rings of burnished unobtainium. People who spend more time talking about photography than they do taking pictures.

Not that that might apply to any of us here, you understand!
