Jim DunlopDunlop Tortex Standard 1.0mm Blue Guitar Pick, 72 Pack

Always used them, always will

I love these picks. I've been a performing musician for a long time and when I started using these, I never went back. They are durable and never break on me. They do start to wear over time but it takes a long time for that to happen. They are easy to hold, feel great in your hand, and play beautifully. I love these picks! I wish I could get an endorsement from Dunlop. I'm already committed to them and will use nothing else from as long as I play and perform! Do yourself a favor and get some for yourself. You won't be sorry.

Everyone has different preferences for plectrums. These fit the bill for me. Thin but rigid. The hard but flexible plastic give a better tone and response than the polythene types. I like the orange colour because I don't lose them when left on the amp or fall on the floor. I also find I can play like Eddie now I have these (I wish!).

I've not been playing guitar for very long and found my normal picks would not stay still. I haven't developed enough skill yet to adjust them whilst playing, hence trying out some tortex ones. Reviews for them seemed positive on the whole, so I thought I'd give them a try.The texture has made a massive difference to the amount of grip I have on them and no longer have to squeeze onto them for dear life to try and keep them still.I've found the .88 size is a good all rounder for strumming and picking, however, that all comes down to personal preference.The price is good for the amount you get and I'll definitely buy them again in different thicknesses as well.

Feel a bit thick to me & a bit disappointing. I use 60mm from I was no age & these (although Dunlop) is all I use just are a tad too thick. Would be ok for when playing electric and wanting to rock out but for acoustic, I will just stick to my Dunlop’s light grey 60mm.

If you are looking for a thicker pick, for a more accurate plectrum strumming and picking experience and you have been using a thinner one, then this is a great pick to move up to. Also the Blue one at 1mm is a good one to try as well.The tortex material is much nicer, more comfortable, along with a more grippy feel, in my opinion.Overall a good quality all round plectrum....
