Yes, it's written right on the box!
Yes, they are; I'm a student, and I think they're fantastic. As a student, you can choose which one you prefer by looking at the thickness of each one. I began by learning with a medium pick, but as I improved and after purchasing these, I discovered that I preferred to alternate between medium and thin picks.
Selected User Reviews For Fender Premium Picks Sampler - 12 Pack Includes Thin, Medium & Heavy Gauges (Austin Bazaar Exclusive)…
I purchased this pack specifically to ensure that I had a couple of each of the colors shown in the photo for the 24 pack. I got what I expected, but it wasn't exactly what I expected. I received 8 each of the following thicknesses: 4 Thick Dark Blue, 4 Thick Light Blue, 4 Heavy Brown, 4 Heavy Gray, 4 Medium White, 4 Medium Purple, 4 Thin Dark Blue, 4 Thin Light Blue There are no Green, Abalone, or Confetti, and no color/thickness variety (it would be nice to have a heavy, thin, and medium of each color). They're *very* nice choices, but they shouldn't advertise the variety pack as having all of the fun colors when you don't get them all. According to some of the other comments, they used to send true variety packs, but recent orders appear to have far less variety. If you're only sending a few colors, please update your photos and don't mislead people into thinking they'll get a mixed bag.
I purchased this after purchasing a few Dunlop "variety packs," which contain one of each of about a dozen different types of picks. These are great because you'll almost certainly find a few that you like, each with its own set of applications. I assumed this pack would be similar, as it includes "Thin, Medium, and Heavy Gauges" in "many different styles and colors. " A green Thin, I reasoned, would be distinct from a blue Thin, and so forth. NOPE, there are only three types of picks here: thin, medium, and heavy, each with eight pieces. The Thins, as well as the other thicknesses, are all the same. Fortunately, the Medium option appeals to me. It sounds and looks a lot like my favorite, the orange Tortex, but with a slightly fuller sound and a different finish. As a result, I now have 8 of those and 16 other picks that I will never use. However, in my opinion, it was not worth $11. Especially when you consider that the Dunlop variety packs are only $4. If you want true variety, it's better to buy three different Dunlop variety packs for around the same price.
heavies), and it's only available in a few different colors. Now, I don't care about the color of the pick (unless it's completely obnoxious), and the selection in this pack is sufficient for me (although I understand that some reviewers would prefer more variety). The thickness division is also very good. And the picks' quality is exactly what you'd expect from a Fender product, though calling them "premium" is a stretch. br>br>They are overpriced, in my opinion. It's around forty-five dollars. Each one is only $5. 00! I can get them for a lower price at a guitar store. I would not have ordered these if I had calculated ahead of time. I'm going to give this pack three stars because I don't believe it offers enough value.
These picks are made of a slick material that isn't particularly sharp. I wouldn't use them if you want to play lead. They are, however, incredible in terms of rhythm. They glide across the strings so smoothly due to the material and curve. You can strum as fast as hell and as light as a feather with this material/brand far more easily than with many other materials/brands. Excellent strumming earns five stars.
a plethora of Fender picks of various thicknesses Since some reviewers complained that they wanted a specific thickness in a specific color (smh, why did they order a sampler pack then, lol), but here's what I got, YMMV - Keep in mind that this is a sampler pack, so you'll get a taste of whatever they have: 4 light/medium blue thinbr>4 white thinbr>4 dark blue mediumbr>4 green mediumbr>4 dark grey heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr>4 purple heavybr.
Just don't rely on what's written on the page! The only real flaw with these is that the lettering fades quickly. After a day or two of use, I'm having to look very closely to see where it says "medium," "thin," "thick," and so on. It's easy to tell which one is which just by feeling it - However, keep in mind that the gold lettering will fade over time. br>Overall, though, a wide range of options for a relatively low price - and it arrived quickly thanks to Prime.
These selections are fantastic! I used to buy them two at a time from a local store, but after the grandkids realized what you used them for after I bought them a kids guitar, I began looking for my picks more frequently. I usually put one on the strings of my fender while it's on the stand, but they always come into my office and take it. When they ask, I say yes, just make sure you put it back, and the next thing I know, I'm out of options. So these solved a big problem for me because I keep the package in my drawer and always put a new one on the guitar so the kids can keep losing them while I can use the other one.
I'm not a guitar player, but I've used these for a long time, as well as other brands, and they've stood up to my mediocre strums and power chords. They're doing pretty well so far. I still have them all. I'm not a fan of the thins, or even the mediums, but that could be due to my large hands. I still think they're a great product, and I don't see why I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who plays professionally.
