Just when you thought it was safe, V-Picks introduces what has been refered to as its "most outrageous pick yet." While the pick has yet to outrage this Gearwire contributor, it has piqued his interest.

Like the Diamond, the Snake is 4.1 mm thick, and its made out of the same cast acrylic material that V-pickers have grown accustomed to playing. If the Snake is your first V-Picks experience, there's no reason to get ophidiophobic or even bolshephobic. If the pick feels like it's gripping you, that's just a property of the pick, not some mangling of words by Yakov Smirnoff.

The Snake has three symmetrical points for play, and its bevel is designed for fast play and gigantic, voluminous tone. To further shape the tone, you can order The Snake with rounded or pointed corners, and if you're really feeling daring, try special ordering the pick hybrid-style, which gives you both rounded and pointed corners on the same pick!
