I love the color and feel of these picks.  The only problem is that they are semi-transparent and I can see the strings through the pick.  I'm a beginning guitarist and still have to look at the strings as I play.  Because of the transparency I can't really determine the placement of the pick in order to strum the correct string.  Does this make sense???  I hope so.  This is probably a great pick for a seasoned player, but I recommend that beginners use something solid in color.
