DUNLOP 1.0mm Blue Guitar Pick-12 Pack Tortex Standard (418P1.0)

I AGREE WITH EVERYBODY WHO GAVE THIS PICK 5 STARS! I HAVE BEEN USING A 1mm PICK FOR YEARS! YOU CAN PLAY THE GUITAR SOFT OR PLAY THE GUITAR HARD TO GET THE MOST VOLUME! YOU WON'T GO WRONG WITH THIS PICK!

I've tried many other guitar picks and none of them come close to these ones. They are easy to grip and produce great sounds from the guitar. I would recommend them to any guitar player.

I'm not super picky when it comes to picks, and I have some preferences, but sometimes I try new stuff. I know Dunlop is great, friends love them, so I thought I'd try them out. They aren't the best picks I've ever had, but that is more of a subjective issue, and these are great and easy to hold and feel good. They aren't too stiff, not too flimsy, so try them out!

I used these for years when I played guitar as a teenager 30 years ago. Just bought my first guitar in 25 years and tried a few other picks - maybe it's sense memory, but these feel so right to me. The tone is perfect for my acoustic, it's rich and full but I can still hear the mids clear as day. I like the Clayton Sand Shark for grip, but those sound a bit "scooped," and tone is king. They strum really easily, too. Everyone has their preference, but there's a reason these have been the standard as long as they have.

The texture is nice and grippy while the flex is just right to both be a great pick for rhythm and lead playing!

I usually play the celluloid picks, size X-H (Extra Heavy, yellow) But I decided to try these out as a cheaper option. In the end I prefer the thicker “heavier” pick. I tend to play a lot of hard rock and metal (Architects, Halestorm, Bring Me The Horizon) with .10 to .42 strings so the thicker the pick the better. If you want to save $1 then buy these. If you want to spend $5 on picks that’ll last much longer and sounds stronger against heavier strings then go for the celluloid picks. Dunlop still makes the best picks imo.

As a kid I learned to play the trombone proficiently, but my heart wasn't really in it, so I took up the guitar, which I love. I played for several years but stopped playing for lack of time. I recently started playing again and was looking for the perfect pick for classic rock (I have an old Ibanez and a Les Paul Custom) and have tried several picks in that quest. There are several I have liked (and several that I haven't) but thus far my favorite is the 1.0mm Tortex (blue) picks. They have a very nice, almost powdery, matte feel that minimizes slippage and they just don't break, though the 1.0s are fairly stiff. Depending on what you are playing there are various thicknesses available, and most people will find something suitable for their personal preferences. I won't say that I will never try anything else, but thus far I find myself picking up my 1.0 Tortex more than other picks.

The media could not be loaded. Good pick!
