graphite picks

[IamWILSON]

I've been using Dunlop Gator Grip 2.0 picks for a long time, when I'm playing rock/jam music anyway.  The other day I just got my hands on an Adamas Graphite 2.0 (the one Trey uses) and was really surprised about how different it actually sounded from my pick.  Of course I can pay $50 for a dozen of them on Ebay, but that's pretty ridiculous!  However, there are these on EBay:

Has anyone used them?  The page says they are "graphite enriched delrin."  Is that the same as the Adamas picks?  Anyone know or have any experience with these picks?  Basically, I can spend $18 for 6 of them, or about $50 for a dozen of the real deal.  Wondering if the telfunkens will give me the same sound as the Adamas picks.

These are the picks I use.  I use to use the gator grip as well, and while I can definetly tell a difference sound wise, it is not that drastic of a difference and most other people cant even tell, even other guitar players that I play with.

I have the Adamas pick and I love it. Cactuskeeb recognized it just from my YouTube sound so it must be noticeable to tuned ears. 
I've been looking at Telefukens too. They have to be pretty damn close. Just buy them; they are inexpensive.

Maybe I'll just bite the bullet and buy a pack of Adamas and Telefunkens and take the Pepsi challenge.

"Am I a ni**er? Are we in Inglewood? No... You're in my home. White people who know the difference between good shit and bad shit, this is the house they come to. Now, my shit, I'll take the Pepsi challenge with that Amsterdam shit, any day of the fuckin' week."

I have both the Adamas and the Telefunken.  There is no noticable difference between the two.

disagree... sound wise there is a silght difference... not in a bad way just a slight difference,

The true difference lies in the thickness and size of the picks. they are tough to go from one to the other becuase they feel differently in your hands.. I use both and have almost completely given up on telefunken (not becuase of sound) becuase its difficult to go from one to the other, and i started with addamas.

its personal preferance as to what you are comfortable with, but i wouldnt say there is no difference between the two.

Are you using the Telefunkens that look the same shape as the Adamas?  Because there are several different profiles and maybe you are using one that is not the same??  Just checking.  If you have the one that looks just like the Adamas, I can't imagine that it would be that much of a pain to go back and forth.

I like the Adamas. Been rotating the same 3 for a while now and have a spare pack.
