Great thing, just go ahead and buy one of these

I received this thing today and first LMAO seeing how big it is, but now after playing with it I must order other models as well to see how they feel. Achilleus besides being huge it’s also a huge game changer. It does take some getting used to but I could not beleive what difference it can make when it comes to precision. I already added four other models and sizes in cart but will have to waith for some discount before I pull the trigger lol

Your an Achilles Heel if you don’t buy this!

Jaw dropping mind blowing amp shattering behemoth of a plec! All other brands are inferior, period! Buy one it’s worth it in every way. The texture feels like cyclops eyeball too;) Sorry I had to…

Oh yes, 5 Stars

9mm and 14mm are go to's for Fender bass--Nothing activates the E string like a thick pick! Erogonomic and easy on the hands. Tone is similar to finger plucking (at 14mm) but with the clean, even articulation and attack that is a signature for picks. 9mm is a good compliment and gives more upper mids while sacrificing some of the bass response--depending on the song this can be what you want. Although I have a Purple Plectrum in hand 90% of the time these days, the other fave's I keep nearby are: V-Picks Psycho, Apollo casein, Blue Chip 60's, Adamas, Dragons heart HD (occasional use), and my teacher's (Carol Kaye) 1.5mm teardrop.

Make the switch!

First of all, I must say Kori is a class act. He has taken his time to answer my every question.. and I tend to have MANY! The size of Purple Plectrums looks like it will be a tough change. Well it is very deceiving indeed. See, you put the pick in your hand, and start playing. What?! Yup. Your hand is so free because you are no longer holding down on a tiny pick. If you are a shredder, buy a PP. I'm faster and I've become more agile AND accurate in a very short amount of time. If you're not a shredder, fine. You will find that your economy of motion gets more efficient whether you're playing fast or not. It wasn't my hard work. It was the pick pulling out my full potential. Wrist problems? Hand fatigue and soreness? Just want to play harder and or faster for longer? Stop thinking about it, Just purchase one. :) LIFETIME WARRANTY! Come on! SOLD!

Satisfied Customer

One more satisfied customer. I got the Achilleus a couple of weeks back and have been extremely happy with it! I took my time with writing this review cuz I really wanted to be sure I was enjoying it and I must say : ABSOLUTELY! It did take some getting used to, but not much. The pick is HUGE! Before I got the Achilleus, I have been using the Primetone 4.20mm and the Achilleus completely dwarfs it! I have not been able to put the Achilleus down since I got it. Once I got used to the size, it's been a blast to use. I have arthritis and this has been a God send. The customer service is awesome. There were some issues with delivery but this was due to the USPS during the holidays and that Nor'Easter that hit. Completely understandable circumstances. Regardless, Kori was quick to respond and ensure that the pick wasn't lost. I'm no pro but I enjoy playing and this pick makes it much more enjoyable!
