    Anti-dérapant pour ramasser des riffs lourds

    The 2mm Gator Grip pick has been my preferred pick for many years. I was able to quickly find what kind of pick I liked. I first started with the Green 88mm Tortex picks that many people love. I liked the size of the pick but they were not stiff enough for me. The Tortex picks had a bit too much flex for me. If I was a mainly acoustic player I probably would still be using them. I could not get enough definition when using these picks. I then tried out some Jazz 3's which a lot of my friends use. I loved the stiffness of the pick and the sharpness of the top. With the Jazz 3 I got a really sharp attack and nice clarity with the sound but the pick was so small that I would drop them easily or they would turn around in my hand. With the Gator Grip 2mm picks I guess everything I like with the Tortex picks and everything I like with the Jazz 3. The 2mm is very stiff and is coated with this strange non slip surface. It is like sandpaper but it will wear off after a few days of playing. The picks are as big as the Tortex picks so I do not drop them either. They are moderately sharp but could be sharper. This pick gives a unique feeling as it goes across the string because it is so thick. It does not really bite into the string like a Jazz 3 does it kinda glides across it once it is broken in. When it still has the sandy surface on it the pick kinda rubs against the string like if you are using a coin. So if you are into really heavy picking and want a pick that will stand up to the toughest riffs I recommend the Gator Grip 2mm.

    Excellent choix pour riffs métal!

    A while back when I went into my local music store of choice, I asked for some really heavy picks because I wanted to try something different besides the .88s I was using. I've since used these picks for probably close to a year now, and I haven't looked back. They are great for the genre I play, which is mainly Thrash metal with some drop-tuned stuff thrown in. It gives a really aggressive feel to your playing, and the precision the heaviness allows since it really doesn't bend at all is great for leads or complicated riffs.

    Now, if I mainly played acoustic, or electric with big. clean, non-distorted chords I probably would stay away from this pick, because it gives a very quick and fast attack that. in my opinion, doesn't fit that style that well. It makes this a little harsher than I prefer, which works out great for metal, not so much for acoustic and the like.


    Now, what don't I like about it? Well, it doesn't always seem to stay put in your fingers as well as some of the others. What I mean by that is that it can rotate around somewhat, which can be annoying on stage. It IS harder to drop because of the somewhat rough surface, but it isn't as... grippy as some of the other Dunlop picks.

    I think I am going to try out the Jazz III's next, and they have a uber-grip version of those, so that will hopefully solve my problem with picks slipping around.


    Overall, I like a lot of things about this pick. I would get this pick if you are a metal player who wants a fast, precise, and hard attack. Stay away from it if you are an acoustic or clean player who doesn't want a fast, precise, and hard attack.

    J'ai acheté des 1.5 mm, épaisseur de référence pour mes mediators guitares, et j'ai été très très déçu... L'attaque est inexistante et ca balance un chouya de grave en trop sur cette dite attaque...
    Mais sur une basse la ca change tout, c'est vraiment le mediator basse par excellence ! Une attaque onctueuse , et la texture granuleuse du plectre permet de ne pas trop glisser sur les énormes cordes filées de la basse !

    Mais je préfère basser avec les doigts ^^

    Donc je met 8, le plus objectivement possible pour moi, car subjectivement, je n'aime pas ce plectre pour la gratte qui est mon instrument de prédiliction ^^

    Un an que je me suis penché sur le croco, pas deçu! Un mediator qui facilite mon jeux de soliste, je l'utilise en 2mm, que d'harmonique sans effort, du pur bonheur qui ne glisse pas! Son seul defaut est qu'en usage intense, il s'use très vite (1 mm en moins a la pointe en une repete!) mais bon, ça reste du consommable non?

    J'utilise ces mediators depuis 2 ans..
    Le fait qu'il soit "grip" permet qu'il en glisse pas, ils sont juste tendre ce qu'i faut, je joue en 1,5 mm, avant je jouait en Tortex 2 mm et bien je trouve que le gator 1,5 fait aussi epais..

    c'est devenu mon mediator de reference, j'ai beaucoup joué en 3 mm (big de chez dunlop) pis j'ai eu envie de revenir à des choses plus raisonnables..

    enfin, j'aime le look de ce plectre!
