I'm not sure what I was thinking, but like a lot of folks, I can't resist trying out a new pick. And I figured the 'hard' variety of the Wedgie rubber pick might be of some interest. But it really should be called, 'the Silencer'! It's about the consistency of a pencil eraser, and for mandolin players that may be its best use.
Now perhaps for electric bass, this thing makes some sense, but on mandolin its best use is for practicing while your spouse sleeps. Almost no sound at all, but even the most pick-click sensitive player will have no cause to complain.
edit: Actually, it's kind of nice for playing while watching television. It's so quiet.
