“Where to begin... Zen has that perfect balance of drag and slip, wonderful sizes/shapes, and the beveling is a handcrafted force to be reckoned with.. Duncan gives such attention to detail and it shows with the highest level of comfortably on the strings, find your Zen.” |
Richard Moss - Accomplished teacher, solo artist and guitarist/singer with 'Drop The Floor'. A powerful guitar player and a singer from Blackburn, equally at ease with folk, ragtime, blues and finger-style...
"Zen picks have been really helpful in developing a plectrum that fits with my right hand technique. We started out with a Kalis as I usually use a 346 shape. Mark one had an even bevel which sounded nice but emphasized a bit too much string noise. Mark two is something really special, changing to a right hand speed bevel, I now feel at home! It helps with playing consistent triplets and producing a loud, clear, warm tone with little pick noise. It also helps that the picks look fantastic." |
