Title: Easier to not drop; not sticky; best with new strings
Product review: This pick has some kind of coating that increases the friction with your fingers, so you are less likely to drop it, but the pick does not feel at all sticky. The coating seems to wear away after a while, but the pick is still easier to avoid dropping than a regular celluloid pick, which is slippery when your hands perspire. The pick has a darker sound than a Fender medium pick, apparently because the material is not as hard. The pick seems to wear faster than a standard Fender pick, but it still has a long enough life that the difference is unimportant. I like this pick best when strings are relatively new because this pick takes some of the treble edge off the sound of new strings. After the strings start sounding duller, but before they are dead, I like to switch to a Fender pick, which brightens up the sound a bit. I like the sound, the feel, and the friction of this gator grip pick very much.
