Dava Control Grip Tip Delrin Picks

The softest part of the pick is right above the coloured "smile" - meaning away from the tip. The pick transfers the force from the strings to this part and makes this part bend more than the tip. So though the rubber part is in itself more grippy than other picks, the pick feels less stable when strumming hard. The bending makes it feel like the pick is trying to wiggle its way out of your grip ... or my grip anyway. Many others appear to rate these picks highly. I was disappointed in them. I guess it depends on what you want to use the picks for. I can not rate the durability, so I gave it a medium score. On a side note, though coloured in various ways, all the picks are of the same hardness.
