What picks do you use?

[Deathmetal94564]

I use Dunlop Tortex .88/ Dunlop Tortex jazz .88 when I can find them

Hello dude - yep, still enjoying that one!

As I said, very good attack, nice tone - makes it ideal for slower playing in my book although I have a slight confession....I'm currently playing with a Dunlop Jazztone 208 for faster playing because erm....my fat old fingers seem to like slightly larger plectrums these days

S'all relative to what one needs! I'm still toying with different sizes and shapes, forever experiment!

i just use Dunlop Nylon standard 1.0 mm's

Used to use the Jazz III's exclusively, but got so sick of dropping them on stage, getting them lodged in punters eyes when I once again lose control and send them flying across the room.

Loved the sound from Tortex picks, but could never find a shape/thickness I liked, till I found the Tortex Pitch Black Jazz. Tortex sound and grip, Jazz III size and feel. I live in constant paranoia that they might discontinue them, so I'm constantly buying bulk packs from the states..

Cool, I might have to look for these, are they any more/less slippery than the Jazz III?

 

[philosoful]

Using something like these now, mwahahaaa:

Really quite pleased how these turned out, find me a better looking and sounding pick than that?..

Dunlop Tortex .73 mm here

 

[Soubi7string]

Dunlop tortex sharpies 1.44 the purple pointy ones

 

[C2Aye]

I always seem to use the Dunlop Tortex .73mm yellow ones, although usually I don't mind what picks I use as long as they aren't too thin and floppy.

I discovered today that I the Nylon Jazz III Stiffo's.. I thought I was just using Jazz III's haha. Didn't know there was a difference.

 

[Captain Axx]

dunlop jazz III's and dunlop little stubby 2mm picks

 

[LeviathanKiller]

Wegen TF140 pick made by Michel Wegen. Expensive @ $7.50 but they're good, fast, and clear. The Trimus 250 is a great sweep-picking pick. Oh if I only knew how to sweep-pick though.

 

[espman]

I buy these things in bulk

 

[Stateless]

I've switched picks so many times searching for the perfect pick.
Right now I'm using Ultex Jazz III's.

 

[maliciousteve]

I've changed alot recently. I've gone from my old favourite

And the Eric Johnson Jazz's

to

2mm big stubbies and I've now gone to

Because of the tip which is sharper than a Jazz III but has more material to grip. Much crunchier sounding when playing riffs and any lead playing sounds snappier.

Jazz IIIs

 

[DaveCarter]

Just got some carbon fibre max grip Jazz IIIs today, Ive been using normal Jazz IIIs for years and love them, but the grip could be a bit better. Ultex Jazz IIIs are pretty awesome but these max grips are easily the grippiest picks Ive ever used! Now I have to decide between the tone of the Ultex and the grip of the carbon fibre max grips...

 

[exodus125]

these are some of the titanium picks I make.

I sandblast part of the top to help give a better grip. All of these pieces have been heat anodized.

 

[SirMyghin]

I use 2 stone picks, one modelled after a dunlop sharp (Aussie Jade), and another which was to be the same but the tip broke in the process (banded agate), so it is more like a traditional pick with a sharp point (not rounded). I greatly prefer the second of the 2.

Dude, you should start selling those,they look awesome, and the sandblasting sounds like a sound idea.

 

[splinter8451]

Agreed^

And you should make some Jazz III sized ones for me I'll buy a few.
