i just got my pick today (thanks greg!) and first impressions are really nice: nice looks, nice grip and nice tone. i still think that my wegen GP is a bit louder, but at the expense of what seems to me an increased resonance in the lower harmonics - might be wrong here, the FFT tests i made were not conclusive, but the conditions were not ideal either. wegens also seemed more "buzzier", so to speak. strangely, i found that on the upper register greg´s pick was brighter than the wegen. anyway, just my first impressions.

Cheers,
Miguel.

Good Miguel hope it works out well for you. Yea the Wegan is a nice pick I've got couple, I do like the
grip recess. I'm workin on trying a few milling methods of my own but not a go yet. Certainly don't have a CNC machine yet....later greg
