Can a mod PLEASE OH GOD PLEASE fix the massive grammatical error in the title of the thread!

It actually hurts me inside.

Still Jazz III's but these V pick Screamers are feeling pretty hot too.

I'm the opposite, Jazz III XL's and haven't looked back since.

I was about to buy some Jazz IIIs or Stubbys(SP?) yesterday until I realised how small they were. The pictures online always make them seem to be the same size as a standard pick, I didn't know just how small they were!

Well, more power to you guys that use them, I just can't fathom holding that tiny thing.

Just ordered some Planet Waves Black Ice picks. They're described as an oversized jazz 3 so I'm intrigued. I got the heavy 1.10mm.

Anyone tried these?

I use dava jazz grips. They are like dunlop jazz III picks, but the grip is way better and they have a great feel.

I used Jazz IIIs for a couple months, although I ran into some problems. I have to shift my grip a lot, to allow for all kinds of different techniques, and every time I moved my fingers, I felt I was about to drop it. Also, anytime I went to do big strumming power chords, I didn't have enough gripping space to let up on the pick, and kept hitting my finger on the string, which ended up hurting like hell. So, I decided to take some of my old Tortex .88 picks, and file them down to a sharp tip. And it worked. I go to Guitar Center a week later, and what do I see? Sharp Tortex .88 mm picks

But, now that's all I use, as it's perfect for me.

Confusing thread title!!!!

Right now I am awaiting a pick from "gravity picks". they look very promising, and I could easily switch! But I am/was a big J3 buff, I've got about 75+ of the ultex ones

I've been using the Tortex Jazz III .88mm for a few years, but was recently converted to the new 2.0mm Ultex Jazz III...best sounding pick I've ever used.
