Hey all,
I'm a gearhead. Guilty as charged. I've been playing jazz bass for ~22 years and from an early age I've been obsessed with the quest for tone.
When I started playing the mandolin, my GAS transferred seamlessly to this instrument (mostly thanks to this forum).
So in the ultimate quest to find /my sound/, I have acquired the following picks...
- BC CT55 (speed bevel)
- BC SR 60 (speed bevel)
- BC SR 60 (round bevel)
- BC TAD60-3R (round bevel)
- Fender Heavy (351)
- Fender Extra Heavy (351)
- Fender Extra Heavy (346)
- Golden Gate MP12
- Dawg (most recent gen)
I have some nice recording equipment (Sennheiser 609e, Shure SM7b), and a pretty darn good mandolin (Silverangel F).
Now I'm not the best player out there, but I can demo scales, chuckin', and some Grisman & Garcia melodies.
Would you guys be interested in a pick shootout? I've seen so many pick threads on here (pick comparisons, bevel comparisons), but not many HD sound recordings.
Best,
Rob
