Good quality guitar pick with a good sound

The stiffest and thickest version of Clayton's Ultem Gold series. It has a really good feel and the material, which is very similar to Dunlop's Ultex, has a great sound. The sound is bright and snappy as I like it if I need to be in the foreground of a gig or a recording.

The edges aren't shaped especially, with no bevel of any type. But apart from that a great pick of very good quality, which makes it very durable.
