Really happy to hear you dig the Battle Axe...I have a pretty big hand in the design...the 2.0 is also my favorite...been helping design, test and promote Bog Street picks since the kickstarter days...glad to see people taking more interest 🤙
Never thought I would be tempted by something as trivial as a pick but they actually look like they would really help me because I also suffer with pick slippage!
Recently got me some of the James Hetfield White Fang picks. They are awesome and have a texture on them. I don't like using another pick at all right now.
Been playing with the battle axe series picks for a few months now and I actually perfer them over a Jazz III. The added hole and the texture for grip feels really nice. Fast downpicking or gallops are very tight and roughly the same when compared to the Jazz III's. They're kinda expensive though when it comes to pick. I bought 6 or 7 of them and paid 15 USD plus shipping when they first came out. I wasnt disappointed however loved them first time I played with one.
I think the big thing these (and some other thick premium picks like Dragonheart) get right is having a pretty aggressive bevel. You get the benefit of how sturdy a thicker pick is but they're not so flat and beefy they feel like they're getting hung up on the strings, and for me it really helps to pick quicker because of how they glide across the string surface. But yeah, these look neat. I'm already pretty dedicated to Dragonheart picks after trying them out earlier this year but I like that these are a lot cheaper by comparison. Might grab a pack of them to have around as spares/backups.
Dang could hear a Big Difference I like ! Just got some Fred Kelly picks Really liking them for holding And tone I'll gladly give these a try TFS have a Great Day
I ordered the Leap version back when it was a kickstarter, really great picks but they were a bit too bulky, didn't know they had other versions now definitely need to check out these Axe series.
In my 30 years of playing I've observed that the tip and stiffness of the pick are really mostly relevant at very high speeds, particularly when changing strings or playing very fast passages across strings. At lower speeds it's irrelevant other than the change in timbre a different pick produces. I have found it impossible to find ONE pick that satisfies both my tonal preference as well as being sharp/stiff/thin enough to perform well at very high speeds. Just ordered a samplers of these Bog Street picks to try.
These are interesting looking picks, I may give them a try. These remind me of my "Wedge" picks from Zenfire picks, which is my current favorite.. I like the 3 sides with various tips, angles and the non slip grips.
Chris Broderick's Pick Clip saved me from selling my guitar for good. They're like braces for your fingers. You get a feel of consistency which you wouldn't if you have problems holding the pick without slipping. Once you get real feel of hyper-accurate picking you'll know what to aim for when you don't wear them. As with braces, you need to get them off at the end. Most underrated piece of guitar-gizmo ever.
Check out Gravity picks. I've played Dunlop Tortex for decades (.88) but have moved to Gravity Razer 3.0 and I LURVE them. I feel like I get a more defined pick attack with less movement and while I've always sucked at sweep picking, they made it 10x easier.

Those Battle Axes seems really similar to the Dunlop Flows, really like the Petrucci Flow 2mm apart from the fact that it gets slippery really fast. The Battle Axe might have just enough grip... To bad that shipping to Germany is halmost half the price of the "All Axe-cess"-Pack... 30$ for the picks and another 13.50$ on top for shipping....
Can you check out the James Hetfield 1.0 or 1.14 White Fang picks and see if they would be similar to the Battle Axe? Obviously 2.0 > 1.0 or 1.14 but what I'm more referencing is your playing with them and the texture that is on the White Fang and how you think it would hold up on tour.
What are they made from? Their site doesn't say. Ive been using dunlop flows, but the sharp tips round off. If these were more durable than ultex I would be very interested
Curious to how you felt specifically about the other cuts. One was the same thickness at the Battle Axe and the Axe Cut sounded (through my iPhone) almost the same as your Dunlop
I have hundreds of picks, literally, I have shitload of diff thickness and gauges, you know what? I can play the same shit with all of em. Maybe it's just me?
I paid the small fortune to try these. I wasted the money. They do not improve anything. Mostly cumbersome. Try a freinds before wasting your hard earned money
Yeah these aren't even expensive by premium pick standards. That said I had a similar opinion 'til I switched to Dragonheart (which are a lot more expensive than this) but once you drop $15 on one pick you learn pretty quick to keep up with it even though I was a chronic pick loser before. I don't think picks like this are really intended for/marketed to the crowd who shed picks like dead skin cells and have a big jar of random ones laying around bc they don't last more than a day.

My main complaint with the axe was they weren't the same pick at each tip but it seems I just need the battle axe
@@acexxxoasis yessir, sounds like the Battle Axe is up your alley....
@@JDMcClure I like the orange ones feels the best thickness for me.
I wanted to like the big 3 tip ones.

This is also my girlfriend's dream: Getting the same tip on all three sides
I absolutely love Bog Street picks. I have tried most of them.
Dang could hear a Big Difference
I like !
Just got some Fred Kelly picks
Really liking them for holding
And tone
I'll gladly give these a try

Try out the mini beast one it’s amazing, I finally can tremolo pick with it.
Just ordered some, can't wait to try these out
Dunlop Ultex Jazz III, I'm in love with them
Same here!

Hi, to avoid slippery picks... I have been using Big Stubby by Jim Dunlop (in 2.0 or 3.0mm), I love them! Small, resistant, non slippery.
Similar to the Ernie Ball Prodigy shield pics with a small differentiation. Pretty cool.

Those Battle Axe picks look great
I have a handful of these picks and I dig them, they still don't scratch the itch the same as my fender extra heavy's but they're nice.
because racketBox doesnt need to be burned on stage. ew u

I've been seeing a lot of ads on Facebook for a newer pick brand called Acoustik Attak. They look interesting. Are they any good?
Alittle late to the party but I just got a pack today and my god I love them.
I am a very intermediate player and I have nylon string guitar. Which pic would you recommend for me?
Cool picks!
I enjoy the battle axe 2.0 and 3.0
Used to buy starpicks. Went back to regular dunlop tortex. Lol
I'm pretty sure these are my kind of picks. But the one question is, do they chirp?
Ehhh, picks are cool and all but I’m here for Mr Sparkle! That guy is glorious 😍
i have all of them they are amazing :)
They are cool looking picks...and now I'm gonna hear it from the Mrs, because I bought more guitar picks lol
I am all about oddball and weird, so I would be willing to try one one these just for the experiment.
Guitar Nerd if that’s the case, have a try of purple plectrum picks, I use the apollo. Best pick I’ve ever used and I’ll never look back
@@calebo29536 Rob Scallon told me about those. Of course, it is $20 each, so more than I would ever pay for an experiment.
Guitar Nerd yeah, that’s fair enough, have a good one!
Nice
I like them. Just a bit expensive
turns out I can just attach a expression pedal to my keystation and via this device control parameters in ableton as well, bit cheaper
I like dava picks
Im literally looking at guitar picks to try different ones after years and years of Jazz III just to see whats out there and this video dropped.
👍
What’s that green tape on your head stocks and that green on the side of the frets
It has the tuning written on it, on the frets is for glow in the dark for gigs
@@Razorback. what kind of tape is it?
@@RayRay3634 I really don’t know, I’ve seen it on alot of guitars on pictures etc never IRL
your playing was much tighter with the 2 mm
Holy Moly 20 bucks... not even a dragon heart pic costs that much and it is thicker but also has 3 tips and will last you longer than anything else...
These are like $20 for a 6 pack so they're quite a bit cheaper than Dragonhearts actually.
Curious to how you felt specifically about the other cuts. One was the same thickness at the Battle Axe and the Axe Cut sounded (through my iPhone) almost the same as your Dunlop
What strings you recommend for a ssh Stratocaster
my favorite picks
these are great. just not $2.50 each great. specialy when you can get other picks for $.50
I have hundreds of picks, literally, I have shitload of diff thickness and gauges, you know what? I can play the same shit with all of em. Maybe it's just me?
Gravity picks did it first. Just saying...
No thanks, I'll stick with my Dunlop Flow picks
Yeah, same here. My 2.0 Flow picks are awesome.
I paid the small fortune to try these. I wasted the money. They do not improve anything. Mostly cumbersome. Try a freinds before wasting your hard earned money
So overpriced. If you're someone that loses picks often this is just throwing away $20
That sounds more like a ‘you’ problem than a pick problem broskie haha
String through the hole tied around wrist 😁
It's $20 for a 6-pack - it's cheaper than the Chickenpicks shredder model, if that helps as a comparison
Yeah these aren't even expensive by premium pick standards. That said I had a similar opinion 'til I switched to Dragonheart (which are a lot more expensive than this) but once you drop $15 on one pick you learn pretty quick to keep up with it even though I was a chronic pick loser before.

@@RiffsAndBeards lol not me but my brother always comes to mess with my stuff and always makes picks dissapear
