Jim Dunlop 418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12)

I award 50 STARS for these picks! After breaking enough Gibson light gauge picks to keep me in broken picks for the rest of eternity, I have now found in these THE SAVIOUR of the beginning acoustic guitarist (together with Martin SP 80/20 Acoustic Guitar Strings - Bronze Wound Extra (Light, .010 - .047)). THIS IS THE PICK TO END ALL PICKS. Hold this in your hand and feel something that is truly up to the job, both flexible AND strong, and after a couple of weeks of my fairly hard-hitting amateur playing IT HAS SURVIVED. My Gibson light picks broke at around two a day, that was a £1 a day habit, £350 a year. But now striking the strings just feels so much better. Going from Light strings to Extra Light strings made a big difference too (though the D'Addario ones broke the high E on stringing them). AND NOW I can almost play Tangled Up In Blue, probably the greatest popular song EVER. I could not ever imagine a pick being so important but the fact is it is COLLOSALLY IMPORTANT - if your a beginner like me, GET THIS PICK (and check out EXTRA LIGHT guitar strings). IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE

Great picks

Who would have thought there is so much to think about when choosing a pick! Anyhow, I did some research and decided to try Tortex picks .50. I'm a beginner, just learning first few chords, and the pick seems perfect. It's got a nice light texture so secure to hold. It has a decent amount of flex with enough rigidity to grab the strings but enough flex to play smoothly. You also get 12 in a pack, which should last a while even with regular playing.

Love these picks, very grippy, even with sweaty fingers, although they aren't as long lasting as some. Ideal for gigging with

The only picks I ever use!

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.

A really nice and firm pick for those that like to use heavier strings on their guitar. The edges don't ware down easy and last a long time. With it being a pack of 12 then they are going to last along time

I tried other makes and thicknesses until I settled on these. Recommended by a friend who can play and he was right.

Tempistica, confezione e prodotto ottimali. Grazie.

Ótimo produto, qualidade muito boa

Vienen 12 púas y de momento sigo utilizando la primera. Me durarán muchos años. La impresión se borra con el uso, pero no he tenido problemas al tocar una acústica con ella.

Resistentes!!!

My favorite pick for acoustic guitar. Comfortable on fingers also.
