Jim Dunlop Ultex® Sharp Pick .73MM - 6 Pack

I have been on the search for the perfect guitar pick for years. I have tried just about every shape and gimmick at this point, until I narrowed it down to this. I first tried a Jazz III XL ultex pick a few months ago, and found that the material was insanely durable. I would blow through normal tortex picks way too fast, and ultex solved that issue. Albeit its more expensive but for how long they last, that outweighs tortex being cheaper. What I wasnt happy with about the Jazz III XL Ultex was that they werent sharp enough. I just could not get enough articulation with my playing style. Then I found Ultex Sharps and it is the end all be all of guitar picks for me. They are absolutely perfect. The size is perfect, I have pretty large fingers and play hetfield-style with three fingers touching the pick and they fit. The perfect pick.

excellent

Pickup is to material made. Has great fill and rigidity to thickness ratio.I will recommendthickness 2.0 and 3.0 forcelectric guitarThickness 1.00 and 1.4 for acoustic guitarYou need all those 4 thicknesses to cover allplaying styles in each guitar type.Ultex is the best which is actually a brand name from Fender to a material called Ultem which it's chemical composition is Polyetherimide which is a type of plastic . By the way it is a thermoplastic material meaning by heating it you can remould it .Very durable material , more then Nylon and Celuloid and Tortex ...

came as described

I use the purple 1.14 mm dunlops for decades. Switched to these couple years ago and never looked back. The fine sharp point and smoother texture really helps with high-speed picking accuracy.The only problem is they are slightly translucent in color so if you drop them they're a little bit hard to find.I wish the luck would that make them in purple

These are made from a good material, but I have had a hard time holding on to them.

Love the standards, love the sharps even more!They really wear so well also. Last forever for me and I play a lot

Just like the title says... These picks are very unforgiving, in all the best ways. Every detail of your technique punches through loud and clear. When it’s my turn to take one of the lead breaks in a fiddle tune, I no longer feel like I have to wind-up like I’m about to swing a ball-bat just to get out on top. What’s really great is they don’t have that overly plastic-y, unnaturally bright sound to them, which some companies employ, in order to perceive a volume increase. Every move made sounds much more deliberate, especially when picking a lead in the low register. But beware... if you haven’t been keepin’ up on your chops, well... that’s gonna shine through just as well.I’m my personal opinion, it’s damn near the perfect pick. I haven’t seen or heard a material as “all inclusive” as Ultex, BUT... if you’ve ever played using a “Snarling Dogs” pick, or one of the models by “Cool Picks”, you gotta know their “Cat Tongue” grip cant be beat. Not even close... I don’t understand why, but nobody has attempted a line of Ultex picks, that have the Cat Tongue grip... I know there’s one company that owns the technology, but it has sold/leased it to a few other companies to use, so it’s not like it’s impossible to get. It’s really very strange actually. I’ve tried to contact most major pick manufacturers about it, and even offered to pay whatever they would charge to just demo the idea and send me a bag of whatever happens... nobody can give me a straight answer though, and most companies don’t even respond.Anyway, until someone decides to help me out, I’ll keep asking. And I’ll keep using these Dunlop sharp Ultex picks. Like I said... not perfect, but damn close.
