When you hold a V-Pick Colossal you are holding a one-of-a-kind! There are over 75 grinds on this pick! It hits the grind wheel over 75 times. Each one is laser cut to size, hand ground and beveled, flame buffed, and then hand buffed on the wheel. Then, back into the laser machine for the logo, TM and name. They really are magnificent when they are done. If you play with this pick and are not inspired in some way, then something is just wrong!
Huge, thick, fat guitar pick with a huge tone! Great for rhythms and leads. Gypsy Jazz players LOVE this pick. Not only does the Colossal have a huge, fat tone... it is a beautiful pick to see and feel. It is 8.85mm thick!!!! Some might say, "How on earth do you play a pick that thick?" You'd be surprised how easy it is to get used to. Some players get pain or cramping in their hands from playing thinner picks and other problems, and this pick has been God-sent for those players. (Their words exactly.) If you have pain or cramping in your picking hand when playing with a "regular" pick, try the Colossal or Insanity from V-Picks. Once again, all V-Picks are made with our own special formula of acrylic that causes them to cling to your fingers when warmed up. Tone! Tone! Tone! That's all we have to say about these monsters. You will hardly believe your ears.
Colossal (Buffed): This pick has the standard beautifully buffed V-Pick edge treatment.
Colossal UNBUFFED: We do not buff this one. We spend extra time on the grinder making sure it is just like we want it. The unbuffed edges create a different attack. Much like Brian May's coin effect. It also helps eliminate the "chirp" that is often associated with thicker picks. You brush this gem over the strings and the notes just pop out of the guitar. Great for both rhythm and lead playing.
