I have been using the Triakis for quite a while, these are the only picks I buy. I play electric bass and I hit the strings pretty hard. These are perfect for me.
Review by Michael H. on 22 Mar 2025review stating Great material for picks!!
This is my first experience with Tagua picks and I am very impressed. They seem especially well suited for bass, but most impressive is the way they are mostly smooth, but with just enough grittiness to keep them from feeling slippery.

I really like the Howling picks, but the fat Jazz Hybrid pick is a bit small for my liking. I prefer the Fatty hybrid instead. Still a good pick, just not my pick for a pick.

I was surprised to read on the website that the unusual shape of this pick was in reference to Antonio's initials. I had assumed that Antonia was a hybrid Bossa Nova player from Brazil who played hybrid style. :-)
As always with Howling Monkey, this is a great product which is worth every penny. Much appreciated.
p. s. , I have to keep buying these (although they last forever) because, as soon as another guitar player sees one, they're immediately interested and I end up giving it away. Read LessRead less about I love these for several reasons:

I was skeptical at first but wanted to give these a try. Very happy I did. I plan on purchasing more, although so far they are proving to be very long lasting. Smooth as silk on the strings. Some additional chirp but I think I can work that out with pick depth.
