You cant go wrong with peterson picks. I think you will find the blue plastic handles give you more feedback. If you have the opportunity to purchase the "just picks" from petes, get the plastic handles. You wont regret it.

I agree as well...make sure you polish those petersons'. The set I got were extremely rough.

I own that set, but mine are black. They are a little thick, but you can get slimline picks to supplement them. The Bogota rake needs work, as it is shaped a little off. The leather case is excellent. You can get it direct from peterson, which I reccomend. Overall an excellent buy.
