Hello! After lurking this forum for a couple years, I decided to make an account because of this thread. After messing around with them for a few days, I've gotten very used to these pick clips. I use Jazz III picks and they fit like a charm after some adjustment to the clip. They're very secured in their place btw.
A few pics below. If there is any interest, upon request I don't mind putting a video up on Youtube to show how well these pick clips work.     |

I'll ignore the fact it's a BLACK JAZZ III (Shocking!) and thank you for putting them up. Here comes my christmas present.

Glad to see that you go thte Jazz III to stay in your pic clip. I'm not sure what adjustment you could have made that I didn't but it does look like your thumb might be a little thinner than mine, so that could explain why I couldn't get to work for me. Quote:
Ok, I got my Herco thumbpicks in the mail today. I'll start by saying that they are massive and unusable for what I play. I haven't taken any pictures comparing my pick clip with an average sized pick in it to the Herco, but I can if someone wants to see the difference. Secondly, I bought the "heavy" Hercos, and they are about the same stiffness as regular 1mm dunlop pick. That was disappointing. But i guess not the worst thing considering that I had to cut the pick down to use it. Lastly, the bottom part of the clip digs into my thumb, and by 5 minutes of playing, it's all I can think about. It's very uncomfortable. AS I mentioned above, I might have a wider thumb than the average person(I do have large hands), so that could be part of the reason why. That's one of the strong points of the Chris Broderick pick clip, that I can fit it to my finger. I've spent so much time playing with it and I just seem to forget about it, which is exactly what I want. The bottom line is that the Herco picks could be ok IF you have a thinner thumb than I have, you want a 1mm or smaller pick, and you are ok with trimming them down. Quote:
Awesome, thanks for the info! |

Um, part of the reason I use Jazz IIIs is FOR the tone. Your opinions are not fact.

Really? Look at all the flatpickers out there (acoustic world) and most will use thick picks like the Jazz III. That is an extremely poor conclusion with no factual evidence.

.50c each  I payed $5 for a 3-pack  It wasn't a loss though, I finally made use of a $5 Best Buy gift card.I guess for .50c each, they might be worth modifying(although I find the thickness to be far too light for my tastes). I'm happy with the pick clip, and according to Stephani Cabral(a woman who knows Chris), Chris has been using the same pick clip for over a year , so I guess the 4 I have left will last me for a while. |

Hopefully you didn't have to burn to much money on the Hercos. They are only .50c each at my local shop and I know you said you had to order them.|

The XLs have pretty much the same sharp tip I think. I imagine they feel a lot different though.
You could always consider stop using jazzIIIs if you need to 8 finger tap? I stopped using them anyways, I still probably am better with them for shred, but after 3 yrs, I've rediscovered old style picks again. Oh and using the jazzIIIs really helped me get better and more accurate, now it seems even easier with a less pointy tip, and the tone can be much smoother. |

You can buy the Chris Broderick pick clip from here, but only when they are available for purchase. Subscribe to Chris Broderick's Facebook page to get updates. If he says they are available, you'd better act quick because the last batch lasted 1 day before selling out. You can get the hercos picks from Bestbuy if you're in the USA. If not, you'll have to look around. |
