DEVIN TOWNSEND "PowerNerd" PLAY THROUGH
Introducing the Acoustik Attak x Devin Townsend Signature Pick Series; a custom pick designed with, and for Devin Townsend. A collaboration of two unique brands, breaking the shackles of preconceived boundaries in their own spaces, but doing so under the same umbrella of revolutionizing musical expression.
In July 2021, while working on his latest record, Lightwork, prominent Canadian rock musician, Devin Townsend, stumbled upon an Attak Pik during a studio session with producer and music engineer, Garth Richardson (GGGarth). Intrigued by the innovative design and unique properties of the pick, Devin reached out directly to Acoustik Attak.
For years Devin has been searching for a certain sound. The sound of a "serrated" pick without having to wear down a new one while still having other surfaces for multiple sounds with one pick. A deceptively difficult task, and one that other pick manufacturers were not able to find solutions for.
Acoustik Attak accepted the challenge and over the past two years have been working closely with Devin on a custom signature pick that solves this problem for him and delivers the specific sound he's been looking for.
I received my pics and I really love them. I love the colors. I love the shape. I just wish they was a little bit bigger.
I was really overwhelmed as I try out this pick, alternate picking was so smooth and easy an i play faster.
My logo with i printed on the on side was very nice and clear to see, very good work. I think i have found my pick now :-)
At first try it was a little different feel, but with practice I got better acquainted with my new pick. The pick feels like it has little teeth that grab the strings. Which increases is the attack on the strings. Good pick to use on heavier songs like (e. g.) Paranoid by Black Sabbath or Under My Wheels by Alice Cooper. I tried it on my bass guitar and definitely it makes a difference in volume and sharpness. I recommend trying the sample package first to see if this pick will fit your style. There is nothing cheap feeling about Attack Pik.
This is the perfect plectra! I was really surprised how important this plectra is to my sound and playing accuracy. During my musical career, I've gone through different plectra models, and I sharpen the tip of the plectra myself until it fits my playing style.
Before the first try, I thought that the sharp tip of the Stealth III might be too sharp for me, and moving it over the strings would cause problems. But my fear was for nothing. Stealth III is perfect!
I have always used Jazz threes so I decided to give the Stealth threes a go. So far I am really impressed with them. The main reason is the amount of response control you have, simply applying more pressure or easing up you are in perfect control over the dynamic a phrase. They are comfortable, don’t slip and allow a pinch harmonic to be applied whenever you choose. It is fabulous to think that this small bit of plastic is so intuitive and pick research and development have come this far. David
I’ve always wanted custom picks and the fact I was able to get high quality ones for a good price makes it that much better. I also ordered some Devin Townsend and viper 2 picks for my bass player too try and he is obsessed with both! Hopefully custom options for the viper styles soon?!?
After endless searching for the right pick, finally came across the Stealth. It took all the precision and control I’d expect from a Jazz 3 and upgraded every detail. Great grip and even better string release, allowing for fast runs and tight control. The 2.0’s durability upgrade from the 1.0 was huge, meaning the picks can take even more of a beating far outliving other brands. Cannot recommend this company enough!
Yes, I received my picks and they are awesome. Thank you,
The promo illustration of the undead metal guitar god was enough to sell me on the Stealth Heavy. . .reminded me of a poster I had in the early 90s. But seriously, this is my new go to pick now. Loved the Stealth, but the heavier version really supplies the extra girth to give you that chunky, ungodly heavy sound and effortless artificial harmonics metal guitarists seek. Ergonomically constructed to give you the ultimate control over your picking as well. Excellent work creating this amazing pick Attak Pik, it will be my forever go to now!
When I first saw the original stealth I got curious and decided to try them and once I got them it took me a little while to get used to how they felt but once I did it felt great, however I always wished it was a bit smaller and thicker.
So of course as soon as I saw the stealth III came out I knew I had to try them and I was NOT disappointed at all!
I immediately fell in love with it!
Bought the sampler pak and the grey ones are great for electric. The white ones for acoustic. The little ones for jazz. They don't slip in your fingers much and if they do they still grip. They have three different edges and I totally like the opposite ends. I've bought a year's supply I think as the were 2 for 1. A good investment.
These are the best pick I’ve used by far! I’ve not dropped one yet. Great feel and overall design for effective grip and execution -I actually round off the points as I use the long edge of the pick.
The stealth III is one of the best designs I've used for playing bass guitar. I'm able to dig in with this pick and get that very aggressive attack I need when playing 5 string bass in metalcore genre. I'm able to keep a firm and easy grip on the pik where as some other competitors I've purchased in the past i find they slip from my fingers. The dexterity of this pick is great. I find they last me many rehearsals or gigs before I have to replace with a new one. And for the price to purchase packs of these are reasonable.
This pick is awesome! It made a lot of difference. It changes the way I play guitar now. It’s more comfortable and it gives you more drive. Thanks!
I bought these because other picks always slip through my fingers. These are the only ones that won’t. Plus they make great floral arrangements. :)
