LUXE by Martin Contour Pick - 1.0mm Review

Too bright

I normally use V-picks and Blue Chip picks on my guitars. This pick has the shape I prefer, and as a Martin fan, I wanted to try it. I feel like the pick gives my guitars a very bright, shallow tone. I've tried it on all my guitars and I really didn't prefer the sound of this pick on any of them. I primarily play Martin acoustic and Fender electric guitars.

Ok

I've bought 3 of these since they came out... never thought I'd spend $60 on 3 picks but here I am. I play rhythm for the most part and get a significant amount of wear on these picks--I get about 2-3 more weeks of use out of these compared to other 1.0mm picks. They do sound great. It gives a great loud, warm tone to the attack on the strings and really brings out the bottom end… read more of my Martin. I would just sparingly use them for performance only and not practice as they're expensive. As they wear you get less bite on the attack and it gets warmer/duller. If that's what you're going for then the bevels do a really good job of wearing to your play. overall, use sparingly, or don't and get the sound you want by adjusting your pick position and wear. This would make a great gift!
