Dunlop 424P10 1.0mm Tortex Wedge Guitar Picks, 12-Pack

These are just a little bit bigger - but it makes all the difference in the world

Great pick or Greatest pick? QUANTITY: 72 picks! They arrive in a baggie about the size of your palm with SEVENTY TWO picks! This is a godsend for any guitarist. Drop a pick? Screw it you have 72. Lose one in the washer? Who cares!? Eventually you will have 72 picks lying around your house, in the washer machine, in your car, in your pockets, etc to the point that you will always have a pick within arms distance of where you are. This means when you get that idea or tune in your head you won't be scrambling around looking for a pick, get frustrated, then lose the idea and spend the rest of your life working as a barista because you couldn't lay down the rhythm section of your aspiring band's debut smash hit "Pickin' away at your heart" QUALITY: You have three factors coming together on this pick. The wedge, the material, and the 0.50 mm thickness. Everyone's play style is different, but I love this pick above all others. The pick gives me a range of attack to the strings due to the design. The wedge shape lets me grip it in many ways such that I can grab the top part of the wedge and hold it stiffer by pressing with my thumb into my index finger and curl the pick just a bit to make it stiffer for a more aggressive tone. Alternatively, I can loosen up and the pick is flexible enough to do some up down fast chord strumming for a more jazzy attack. My fingers have come to love the texture of the pick because it is smooth, but it has just enough texture to keep a good grip. VALUE: ~$17.58 divided by 72 picks = 24 cents per pick. What's that? You never have to go the the music store and pay 50 cents for a pick again? Done.

Great for beginners. Flexible not too hard makes strumming easier.

The product picture shows the white-red 0.5mm versions but these are the white-orange Tortex Wedge 0.60 mm picks, the best thickness for acoustic guitar in my opinion. These things bring acoustic strings alive with a tip that is sharper than the merely very good standard Tortex "non-wedge" versions. There is a noticeable improvement in brightness of sound and crispness of attack, while the broader base is indeed easier to hold than most other picks, including the standard Tortex solid orange 0.6mm pick. Tortex has a strange powdery feel and sticks to the skin a bit, yet it is extremely durable. One pick can last months. So why are these Wedge versions hard to find? I don't know, but the secret needs to get out. These are the best acoustic guitar picks I've ever used.

I used the jazzIII equivalents of this pick and then swapped over since I like the larger pick size. thickness and springiness is great for fast picking. a lot chunkier which is great for bigger fingers. Very easy to play pinch harmonics.

These Tortex Wedge picks are the best I've used. I'm an advanced player and I've used a lot of picks. The size and material make these very easy to play and they don't slip around. They are also a bit unique -- you will rarely see them in stores, and you cannot find them in the usual online music websites. The Wedge tip is the feature that sets it apart from the standard Tortex picks. When you compare the two one on top of the other, you can tell the Wedge has a more defined tip. This helps with arpeggios and fast play as the description says. I have used the .73, .60 and .50mm. Although they do last a LONG time, the Wedge tips do eventually wear down so I like to have some brand new ones on hand at any given time. Buying in bulk this way will ensure I always have the right pick.

I have always used Tortex picks for their superior grip in my fumbling, sweaty fingers. These add a sharper point that helps my generally terrible accuracy for single note picking, but doesn't diminish my ability to play chords across several strings. These are my go to picks now in .73 and .88 mm

I have not used them full time but what i have used them for has been great. I have ordered more because once I run through my current bag of picks I will be switching to these full time
