Review Dava Ultra Control Pick
 
 
 

Review by humbuck on 7.7.2004




Bought from local guitar shop priced at ?1.40

 
 
  Features  
 
Has very good control - Inulld say really good for the accurate metal/rock riffs, e.g. Van Halen, metallica.

Inulls a strong pick, I donnullt really like the metal point, but thatnulls just an opinion, This is a must have pick, buy it, play with it, see if you like it - I think you will
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
Donnullt expect good results on anything but heavey metal/rock, but on heavey metal/rock itnulls a really good pick
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
Quality pick man.
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
Itnulls as durable as hell - you cannullt break these things, you have a pick for life. Really good as a reserve.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
Inullll always have one of these with me, I personally prefer the softer plastic tipped model, as you have wider usage, but these (steel tipped) work well, very good value - go buy one and see for yourself, itnulls on;y ?1.40!

Hey all, this is the only guitar pick you will ever buy again. Itnulls Called the Ultra Control Pick. I bought it off of Musiciannulls Friend.com for about $1.99.

 
 
  Features  
 
This is called "Ultra Control" be cause the middle of the pick is this (with a few ridges). The point of this is you can change pick gauges on the fly. hold it farther back (away from the tip) and itnulls a lighter guage, farther forward (possibly holding on to the tip itself) and itnulls solid as a rock. Qhat I mean by "the tip" is that this pick is plastic with a STEEL tip. this will not break! I used to buy 1.2o mm and 1.00 mm picks, but this goes from 0.60 "mm" to about 2.0 "mm" in "gauge". This is awesome.
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
This pick out performs all of my other picks. I break at least one pick a week (only one because I still need to get a gig). This WILL NOT BREAK! And, it sounds just as good as any other pick Inullve used.
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
Not only does this pick give a gratifying feel while playing, if you do it right, you can get a sound that almost sounds like a chorus pedal effect by playing with the side of the tip (if you know what I mean). To do that, the pick has to be able to "give" a little, so hold it farther back and play with, basically, the side if the pick so that both the steel and the plastic go across the string. Itnulls really cool.
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
This pick is the only pick I use anymore. It wonnullt break and Inullm not gonna get rid of it. Itnulls absolutely the best pick ever.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
overall, this pick has lived up to my expectations and more. The little "extra bonus" of the fake chorus effect was just plain cool. There just no replacing this pick (unless you lose it). Therenulls no need to by any other picks again after this one. Itnulls just perfect.
