yeah the pale human skin colour that turns to dried grease is kind of hard to find I still need to pick some up, nobody carries them around here, maybe alpha music does but those guys give me bad vibes.

at first i thought that they slipped a bit easier than the red ones, but i got used to it quick, and they feel about hte same in my hand now.

in comparison the red ones feel smoother, and sound a bit more mellow.




only bad thing about them is they're the same color as my carpet at my house, and the carpet at my friends apartment, so they're hard as hell to find on the ground, haha. red ones were dead easy
My experience is pretty much the exact same, right down to the carpet color, haha. I have to say after adjusting they seem a bit easier to keep a hold of, though.

I bought a 24 pack of 'em a couple months back and haven't used anything else since.

There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And it's filled with people who are filled with shit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it
But not for long ...

I was wanting to order those because I figured they'd have a better precise sound to them. But I ended up forgetting about them. I might have to order some now that you mentioned them. The only bad thing I've found is you can only order them in bulk around here. Which is a lot more than I'd like to spend on picks, especially if I don't like them.
