Coming Full Circle | Rabea Massaad Signature Dunlop Flow Pick

[@RabeaMassaad]

I am super proud to announce I have a signature Flow pick with Jim Dunlop! You can find them here: My Store - bit.ly/2SZiS3F Andertons - bit.ly/2vMXDds Strings Direct - bit.ly/3bT1eao Guitar Center - bit.ly/2SKJ57r Sweetwater - bit.ly/2P2NK2b Reverb - bit.ly/2V7tDns Music Good Deal - bit.ly/2vPhDfq Riff City Blog - bit.ly/2V74I36 I'm really p[leased with the result. They are 1.0mm Ultex, but they have a really good balance between rigidity and flexibility. The result is what I consider to be my perfect pick! I hope if you get a pack that you enjoy using them as much as me!

[@andrewham6245]

Rabea Massaad I just ordered some man! Super excited to try them! Also, when are you gonna do a video on your new sigs!?

[@jeffleecust]

About to order mine from Sweetwater they have four dollars off so a six pack is only $5.99

[@Shark-Dev76]

Just got a 20 pk

[@hermonoetim]

Rabea Massaad just ordered mine! I can’t get afford your new sig guitars yet! But I can get the pics! Man!! I can’t wait to see what your final guitar looks like!

[@Roni8848]

I don't care much about this pick really (although i'm shure it's great). I just came here to listen to your playing and god it gives so much pleasure to listen to it.

[@ChrisEhYoung]

How did you not call them the Dunlop Fro Pick?

[@tokolaguitarra]

Chris Eh Young lol that would have been perfect 😂

[@fishingdjursland]

Congrats on the endorsement Bea, well deserved indeed. It's cool as a fan to see your carreer develop, and to see that no matter the success rate you still have both feet planted on the ground. Keep on chipping away and I can't wait to see where the future will bring you!

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Dude congrats!

[@MattyK-USA]

F'ing Bea. It's all out there for you mate, and I'm bleedin' chuffed to see you just keep on killing it, every step of the way. Well done doesn't come close. 👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸

[@KaiDown]

Really digging mine. Probably the most durable thin pick I've ever used. I've already worn the graphic off of 2 of them from using them so much

[@TheArmchairSessions]

I've been watching you for a while as you've come into your own through Anderton's and Chapper's and your own channel. From Dorje to Toska and everything in between. And now your own guitar endorsements, Bare knuckle pickups and picks! Couldnt happen to a more deserving young man. It's so awesome to see excellent talent recognized and rewarded through social media. We've come a long way from the days when the record companies and radio stations dictated who and what was suitable for airplay. Wishing you a long a fruitful career !

[@Pughhead]

Still remember that studio update where they were talking about Bea's ultex XLs, been using them ever since. Might have to try these.

[@DearCody]

Hello Everyone! I just got my Bea Flow Picks and i'd like to share my experiences. I mostly use 0,73 Dunlop medium picks (and 9-42 strings btw), so i thought it will be a little thick for me, but after a few minutes i used to it and something magical happened. It's really accurate, stable in your hands, so the play became easier. I never thought a pick can add this much to your hands. Really easy to hold it in the right position and the shape make it flow through the strings. Actually it feels smaller than it is, in a good way. Maybe i'm a little positively prejudiced, couse it's Bea's, but i feel it more fixed in my hands than other picks with the same shape. The surface is solid, not sticky, not sloppy, simply good. Really fit to an electric guitar, i feel free to recommened it! Neverending respect Bea!

[@michigangreen1915]

I can’t help myself. I buy everything that either has Bea’s name on it or he helped design. Kraken... own it. Wild Fro pedal... own it. Chapman Bea signature guitar... own it. I even have his previous signature pick. I guess I am getting another one. I’ll never play as well as him but his style and his tone is amazing.

[@TheMindBullets]

Congrats man. You're a hard working, dedicated, world class purveyor of skill and knowledge. Well deserved.

[@patricksharpe]

I just "picked" up a pack of these and I'd have to say "I dig'em!" My personal favorite pick is the Dunlop ULTEX sharp 2.0 mm (it is a big boi) but recently I decided to branch out and try a few new selections and Rabea Massaad's Custom Flow 1.0 mm pick has got me enjoying the thinner side of life. Is this art imitating life or a happy accident? Much love going into 2021 everyone!!!

[@clench13]

Bea, i’ll give your new Sig picks a try. I’ve been use the JP ones for over a year now and really enjoy them after coming from the jazz three style pic. Your’s sounds intriguing. Congrats!

[@Dayphid]

Man these picks are glorious! I’ve been playing the basic Dunlap tortex picks for ever. I mean going on 20 years. Any time I’ve tried a new pick I’ve immediately switched back. Your new flow picks blew my mind. They felt grippy on the strings in the best way possible. In no way was it a hinderance. The smaller size made pinch harmonics a joy. I barely have to change the angle of my pick stroke at all to hit epic screaming ones. I generally play a .60mm to .76mm depending on my mood. I was concerned on the thickness of the pick. Those I may still try out other gauges this one feels amazing. I can play fast, articulate, strum full chords, sweep pick.... everything I’ve thrown at this not only feels great but sounds cleaner and brighter. It feels like I’m getting extra attack of the strings which has improved my tone while recording as well. Great product. Thanks for making it. I am in love with them! David

[@BassWhoopinFishingTeam]

Just ordered these. You are quickly becoming my favorite guitarist! Such a class act guy with great videos and style. Never change! Rock on brotha!

[@cefizl]

Same thing happened to me. Tried the JP flow and was blown away by how easier it made everything. Been using the 2mm standard (because of the grip) since.

[@HeavysRib]

I bought regular flow picks after you announced these ones and I'm not going to use any others after buying them! They're awesome!

[@TheConfusedMasses]

I SEE THAT SABRE BACK THERE, I'm dying to see how good that guitar is

[@liv2praz]

just saw this vid a few weeks ago. been playing guitar for 23 years. always preferred thinner picks, with my staple for years having been PickBoy Carbon Nylon 0.75’s. 1.0 mm is actually thick for me and i assumed i wouldn’t like the tone (almost always the case with me and picks), but i figured i’d give them a try, since your playing attack is so dynamic and crisp. verdict... these are simply the best picks i’ve ever played with. they satisfy my extremely ‘picky’ taste for attack tonality, get along with both picking and strumming, and despite not having some kind of augmented grip texture, i haven’t dropped or slipped one yet! i’m extremely impressed and glad i came across this video. thanks! 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@johnw5734]

It's amazing how important something as small as a pick can be. Happy to see you have a signature pick. I need to try those out.

[@CraigCrider]

So stoked for you (and us). I've tried a couple different Flows and I really like them. 1.0MM might be too thick for my tastes but The Fro makes it worth it.

[@rickfeith6372]

I love that intro...and then the heavy part. Such a tasty player.

[@danxthexman82]

Congrats Bea on your new picks! I've been using dunlop flow picks for about a month and I love them. So now I'm going to grab some of your new signature flow picks!

[@yippy327]

Brother, you deserve all the good, that's coming your way! Love ya, man!

[@Nellil]

I've used Teardrop style picks forever until I tried Flowpicks a couple of months ago. I'm now hooked on Flowpicks.. 😎

[@msmartin4]

Congratulations!!! Just wanted to let you know that I recently picked up both your albums and they are absolutely amazing! Great work brother, keep it up!!!

[@mattfleming2287]

I discovered Flow picks last year and they are fantastic! Improved my playing immediately. Congrats!

[@MikeMCT]

Greatest electric guitar pick hands down. I saw Rabea’s videos with Anderson’s but that has zero influence on this (like his stuff though!) - they are all great on those reviews. I like the flow pick shape and gave these a try. Just an absolutely killer grip, a tad of flex when you want it, and just glides over strings until you want to dig in. Huge well done from me on these! Mike

[@simmonphoenix3206]

I just started using the Dunlop flow picks as well. They sound good and aren’t too plinky on the strings acoustically.

[@Mindartcreativity]

Ordered a pack of those to try out. Looking forward to it!💪🏾

I love your signature picks. I've been using them for about a year now.

[@ohn1234567]

Good on you getting a signature pick. Your playing is phenomenal as always.

[@Taurex]

Hey Bea, I just bought these and they're great! I already had the 2mm Petrucci version and I loved the way it felt but it was actually unusable for me when recording because it has an extreme amount of pick chirp. This one retains most of the feel but has a whole lot less pick chirp despite being made of the same material. It's strange how much of a difference 1mm makes... But yeah this is probably gonna be my new main pick now! 🙂

[@cpamiseso]

ULTEX is a beast! I always go slippery with it, and I enjoy alternate picking with and strumming works nice as well due to that slippery.

[@RonRuminski]

I just received a pack of these and they are awesome. It sounds odd but my picking is easier/better with these. I’m not a fast picker but they seem to glide on the strings a bit better and they don’t feel thick. So glad I tried them. Thanks!

[@christianflamm5533]

Why isn't it a Dunlop Fro pick?

[@TheMetaldudeX]

Too offensive to Asians 😂

[@zosojstro]

I am going to get pack!! You definitely got all things in music going keep it going it’s great to see hard work and mad talent pay off and you’re a nice guy!!

[@DoodlesGaming]

funny you mention it, the Dunlop Tortex pink and purple ones have been my go to picks since I started. Then I used Jazz 3 XL, then imported Fernandes picks from Japan, now I'm using Dunlop Ultex, now I'm looking at Flow picks. It seems we all go on this same journey

[@ATX0705]

These are pretty much my favorite picks now.

[@robertkeenan9706]

I started using the 2.0 flow picks and they’re awesome!

[@5次元]

the best pick I ever used! Thanks Masaad!

[@Xenious]

Interested to try these. I discovered the Hetfield White Fang flow and was amazed at how much I liked it and the clear attack it had. Order placed!

[@jim.missywyant.kennedy2334]

Their PrimeTones 1.0m is where I've landed. I can't seem to meld with the smaller Jazz 3's and Flows, and def not for a lack of trying, Lol. Congrats on your own pick Bea, people underestimate where a great feeling/playing pick can take them in their playing. Once you've found it, you can forget about it!

[@devondadude420]

I ordered yours off of Sweetwater. Now I'm stuck between your picks and John Petrucci's pick. I love yours, and they've become one of my favorite things to use. I think these will be my new main pick.

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

After trying many different Jazz III picks these ones are my favourite hard picks. They create a tone that is hard to describe that is different than any other pick I have tried which I like. I like using hard picks on my non hollow body electrics plus my acoustic guitar. I do like to use thinner picks with my hollow body guitars with the neck pickups though.

[@choctawcodger5418]

Congrats on the sig. picks. Let the Fro Flow!! 🤘🏽🎸

[@homunculouis]

They're my favourite picks since you gave them to me in Frankfurt!

[@johannesprinz5184]

Cool! I also got one there. I was the one asking which picks he is currently using and you know how the story went:)

[@_RLP]

Great stuff, Bea. So cool to see you expand like this... Cheers, mate

[@Zengetsi]

I always carried two picks with me at all times, a .5 and a .75, but after getting a gift of a Dunlop variety pack I found that 1.0 flow pick, and it's all I've been using since, can't wait to Try out your sig ones!

[@michelthegreatable]

nice that you used the ultex material. i use ultex jazz for electric and regular ultex picks for acoustic. if you drop an ultex pick on a hard surface, like wood or something, you just hear all the tone it adds as opposed to other plastics! congrats on the signature set!

[@GASH_one]

As a collector, who has almost every different Dunlop pick (differences in material, shape and/or thickness), I have to get those of course. My favorites are Jazz III Ultex, Jazz III carbon (thanks Mick Thomson!). I also love the Badazz III from ChickenPicks and Dava Jazz Grip Delrin. It's hard to convince me, but I will give your picks a shot.

[@Alec_McCloskey]

They seem to be a lot like the Jazz III XL's that are gone now. I loved those things. Definitely picking some of these up!

[@dvdpz89]

Well deserved. Congrats!

[@jordanwilce1638]

Been using these picks for about a month, they are amazing!

[@Decimation13]

Bought some of these and I really like them. I thought they wouldn't be grippy enough compared to the regular flow 1mm, but they aren't slick at all. Sort of a matte finish.

[@yellowdudewithedibleshorts]

I'm really happy with this. I love the Andy James Flow but always wanted to try a thinner one. Great Bea bro! :)

[@oakworm5526]

just ordered a set. can't wait to try it out

[@TrevorrNourse]

Rabea - Bought your picks and have to say I really like them. Comfortable. Great job.

[@TrevorrNourse]

Shared picks with several of my friends. They are a hit!!

[@mabecka]

Brown/grey sort of see through opaque. That kind of makes for a sure fire way of never finding a dropped pick ever again! Can i have one in flourescent orange please?! Cheers!

[@Bigscott4130]

Congrats!!! Well deserved.

[@chrisharbin623]

I know this is an old thread, but these picks are great. I recently geeked out and bought a bazillion different kinds and these won, pretty much hands-down. But it needs to be mentioned that though I don't play hours a day every day, they do wear out pretty quickly. Kinda weird. And the graphics come off super easy. Super-duper FWP and obviously doesn't effect playing at all, but it's still kinda strange. I also wanted to point out that though I don't usually play bass with a pick, these are perfect for that too :)

[@JobForAMaxboy]

I've used the 1.5 flows for about a year now and have never felt more comfortable playing guitar. But they only seem to be stocked in a couple of places which makes me nervous that they'll stop being produced due to lack of demand

[@KeithShelley1]

Ordered! Been waiting for these for a while now. Looks like we have the same specs for picks!

[@sennata7221]

I totally forgot about that purple tortex pick until you said it, that was my jam when I started too!

[@KRayxKodessA]

Can't wait to get my hands on some! Much deserved dude, congrats!

[@randverserence690]

Nice was just thinking I was looking for some picks. Cheers mate cant wait to try them.

[@LeeJoRo]

I'm using .88 flow and jazz III XL .88. both great

[@zedski]

Been playing with Petrucci Flows for about 8 months now, definitely have to try these out.

[@jsmallsawe]

Congrats bro! I love those flow picks!

[@iliana_b]

ever since i discovered the Jazz III now Flow picks, I can't play with anything else. congrats on the signature pick!

[@patrickmayer9566]

,,,,,,yes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,congrats!!!!..............this,single,smallest part of playing,that we can change,is such a BIG deal.....😯.......I will find a pack of these and soon tell you how we like them here.!!!.OK.!....Dunlop tortex user forever, can't wait to try.!!!!...tnx,pat....big fan........land o' lakes,wi.usa...........

[@Hoscitt]

That's it, you've 'made it' now dude! 🤘🤘👍

[@DareBear2099]

Just ordered mine lol I also have your signature pedal from Tone City (The Wild Fro) which is my go to dirt pedal in my rig. Love your stuff Bea!

[@sambarillas1062]

Bea killing those triplets!!!

[@V-Lenzr]

Hi Bea, hey everyone in KZbin-Land - just tried to shop them on your website together with the physical coy of the Grinding Gears EP. But the picks can't be added to the basket :-( Keep up the good work!

[@jeffleecust]

They are sold out but I got mine order on Sweetwater for $5.99. Now just have to wait for their next shipment.

[@diego.m22]

Purchased!! I can't wait for them to test them 🤘🏻

[@foxbyday4300]

Just ordered some - Power to you !

[@davedavem]

WIll definitely be trying these out!

[@Ailasor]

i love the 1mm ultex sharp and the petrucci pick.. gonna order some of these when i have some spare cash.. probably gonna get overly "expensive" to ship pics to sweden..

[@boomtap7554]

Hi Rabea! I’ve bought some of these and love them. I only have one that’s translucent and others showed up seemingly out of another material. Any idea what’s going on? Did they change what they are made of?

[@angellobonifacio1713]

Asombroso como siempre, ya quiero comprarme esas púas

[@friedcanvas]

Awesome pick bro!! Love it

[@alexlewis8468]

I tried the Petrucci Flow pick, it felt nice, but the pick chirp was off the charts and couldn't stand it. I definitely would like to try these out! But will it take the place of my beloved Dava picks??? Congrats dude!

[@jfo3000]

Dude, my experiences exactly, flow feels and flows awesomely, but for recording that chirp is crazy loud on the unwound strings, gotta use the yellow nylon Dava for recording. Maybe a nylon or delrin flow would be the ideal pick. Those would be my signature picks.

[@simongunnebro1229]

I have a qustion little bit of the topic tho but, Devin Townsend is a big icon in the ambience realm and just Wonder of you have any thoughts on mooer ocean machine the quality of sound.. or if you have test it? Im sure some more wonder about the question. Btw saw you at a sonnemo guitar booth what do you think about them? Rock on! From Sweden

[@Sk8Riffer]

I bought some. Love em. I will be doing a review on these soon 🤘🤘

[@rileyioacura]

I love your picks dude!!! I haven't used another pick since I got them from andertons

[@justintavares9730]

congrats man :) you deserve it!

[@MauDeBruijn]

Ordered some! Keep up the good work mate. Love your shirts btw they feel really nice.

[@charlesford8692]

Definitely getting a set of these👌🏼

[@dewwhatchadew1]

I got a pack a week or 2 ago. they feel pretty good..

[@whheaattzmayne3183]

i just started using flows after i lost a 5 dollar pick that i had. love em!

[@TheBigH1975]

Went to my local music shop yesterday (in ARKANSAS!), and they were sold out. Then the manager came up and handed me one and said "here, you can have one of mine. I bought a couple packs." Score!

[@tdajk625]

just received my Bea picks Great product

[@Erik_Swe]

Ordered ,can’t want to try them out !

[@Attilargh]

How does signature gear work? Do you get a cut for each pack or just bragging rights and a lifetime supply of picks?

[@randverserence690]

a royalty and usually an initial supply followed by things at cost. the Royalty is usually in the 5 - 15% in most cases

[@PackinForSuperbowl]

It ranges A LOT depending on the artist and their commercial demand. It can go from discounted gear to quite a bit of cold hard cash with tons of free gear.

[@Hoscitt]

Hetfield's 'white fang' is a 1mm ultex flow.... Good company to be in!

[@johnjgibson6807]

Got To Order Some 👍👍🎶🎶🎸

[@rs700910]

Awesome playing 👍🤟

[@ng_music812]

Flow and Jazz III XL are the best!
