I live the variety of sizes and with its design they are easy to hold. The sound produced by the different size picks are great
Surge
A standard pick that refuses to behave like one. Surge introduces a grit and edge to every note — a distortion-like character without a pedal in sight, and a growl on bass that players come back to every time.
- Introduces immediacy and edge to the attack of each note — adds grit to clean tones, increases presence through distortion
- Produces a smooth upper-frequency boost without harsh brittleness — presence without shrillness
- Delivers an edgy, growling bass tone that creates playing presence in the low-end mix
- More aggressive tonal character than Attak — cuts harder, feels more forceful on each stroke
- Works across electric, acoustic, and bass — versatile enough for players who don't want to swap picks mid-set
"The tone is in your hands and fingers — and these picks in your hands accentuate that. Let's see if some kid from somewhere gets a couple of them and uses them to do things no one had ever thought of before."
— Brian Goss, NYC session guitarist (Guns N' Roses members, The Misfits, Lumineers tours)"All I can tell you is that I fell in love with this pick from the first time I used it on my acoustic guitar. In my humble opinion it's probably the best I've ever worked with. Sincerely and absolutely love it — buy a few of them and when you find out why you'll thank me for it."
— George B., Verified Customer ★★★★★Specifications

The Science
Learn how it works →
The Surge has a bit more flex and can work equally well with acoustic or electric, great for more aggressive sounds
The first time I used the Surge II was with my Takemine jumbo acoustic, it projects well as it is but the pick took it to another level. With electric it to an overdriven sound and added a good amount of aggressive attack
I first ordered the Attak and Ambush as a pack for playing on acoustic. They sound great but add quite a bit of friction, making strumming really difficult. The Surge is a much better fit for campfire-style players, like me. Very happy with the purchase.
