JIM DUNLOP Nylon Pick 12 Pack (22449060012)

Wow, $5.49 for a dozen! I'm playing Doobie Brothers Long Train Running, which emulates a train. It's a ferocious strumming song, and I was using a heavy pick. I think good players probably develop a very light touch on the strings when they strum, but when I'm getting into it I bear down and it's hard to hold onto the pick. I'd have to keep adjusting it and there's no time. So I looked for a lighter weight pick with some texture that would be easier to hang onto. I tried D'Addorio Duragrip, and they have a nice pattern. They're 7.99 for 10. Then I found these Dunlop Max-Grip 0.6mm picks and it's not just a pattern, it's almost like velcro. Really easy to hold. And they are light weight so they glide over the strings and I don't lose hold of them. Perfect for this fast funk sort of strumming. Not good for single note riffs... for those I want the heavy pick.

i use them all time

I used to use any pick when I was younger. Nickels, quarters, bread clips, cut up credit cards...not anymore, when I don't have this pick available, I take the time to look for it or I won't play. It's nuts.

Small, compact and easy to use.

He said that he will use them for his guitar and electric guitar he plans to soon get and are perfectly a good fit for that.

Great pick for this aging guitar player. For me it replaced Fender Thin picks. With some arthritis in hands, this allows me to continue playing without the pick slipping from my hand.

Best picks on the market.
