Solid starter choice
When buying your first pedal, this is a solid choice to power it. Otherwise, there are better options, and using this with a daisy chain can cause damages and/or unwanted noise on bigger pedalboards

Long life
These strings are high quality. They sound great after they're broken in, and you'll find they feel good. Due to the long life, they take longer to break in than something like Ernie Balls, which means for the first week or so the tone you'll be getting will be kinda terrible, and there may be fret buzz. However, as I established before, if you're willing to get through this, they're high quality and good sounding after that. Don't change into these strings right before a show, and don't use them as your emergency strings. For that you'd want a string that's much easier and faster to break in, and doesn't sound as bad out of the box.

Best pick ever
This is the best pick I've ever used. After making the switch to Jazz IIIs, tremolo picking and pinch harmonics got about 10 times easier. They're very ergonomic and feel good to hold. The decreased surface area can be a downside for some, but for me it means I have less I need to control while I'm playing, so I have greater control over my picking hand. The grip on this specific picks makes it even better than a standard Jazz III, so it's by far the best pick I've ever used

Decent for a first guitar
I enjoy it, the tone isn't amazing, but not bad. There was some fret buzz out of the gate.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
I enjoy using the bridge-middle pickup with the bridge tone at ten and then neck tone at about 4. Gives a nice humbucker sound.
