The tone it creates is bright when compared to a Jazz 3, and warmer than the Gravity Sunrise Standard, making it feel like a bit of a compromise pick - the jack of all trades. It feels and sounds at home playing a variety of fast articulate runs and open chord strumming, but one area it really shines in is syncopated funk style rhythm playing. It has a natural compression in it which really lends itself to this style of playing.
Overall, this pick is a great alternative to picks made from more usual materials, and is worth considering if your playing style involves articulate playing and you would appreciate the natural compression this material lends. Players of Jazz 3 picks should especially try this one out for some tonal variety, and at only £3 I think it's a pick worth trying. I'd be very interested in trying some of the other materials Timber Tones use to make picks.
I'm a long time Jazz 3 user but these sound like a pick I should try. Good review
