Dunlop JD JazzTone 205 Guitar Picks 6-Pack

Been using Jazz III picks for years, was given a bag of JD JazzTone 205 picks. Never going back.

I received one of these by accident when a friend sent me deluxe hard case he wasn't using, and it was one of two picks left in the storage space with the key...lol. I tried it for one practice session, and ordered three 6-packs of 205s the following day. I've used JD Jazz III Stiffos for well over 20 years, and had NO interest in switching, but when I tried the 205, it was as if I'd gotten an upgrade. Like the bow of a violin, this is where our tone is initially propagated. The feeling/feedback of this pick is so much more natural and organic than anything I've tried before. I'm rediscovering my sound, and could not be happier about it. A VERY surprising bonus for me: I have a proper sounding pick slide again! As many as of us know, if you use the Jazz III Stiffo, you sacrifice the sound of a classic VH/Rhoads pick slide...unless you take the time to reshape the edges of all your picks with a file, which I never did, and was fine with it. Killer tone!!

Good control, a bit tricky to hold but stays in the same place, does not move around in the hand too much, allows for faster and assured picking. Definitely liking it better than the usual normal size guitar pick. Have been using Tortex/ alligator Dunlop ones for a while, this is another really good pick from the same company.

I've used a variety of picks, and started playing the Jazz III style a few years back. I loved the Ultex Jazz III but after a guy working at a local music store in Mt.Pleasant, SC gave me one of these, I've never looked back. They're sturdy, fast and are comfortable to use. They're even a little smaller than a Jazz III but they produce a very natural and full tone plus you can speed shred like no other if that's your thing. Once you get used to the size you'll love these picks.

I've been playing with these picks for over ten years. Not only are they the fastest picks I have ever played, they actually sound much better too, especially on hollow and semi hollow body guitars. I get a very clean sound using these picks.

A friend gave me 5 of these and they are the best picks I've ever used. They are small but thick. The feel so good to play with and sound really good too. I've kept up with this picks for a while now, but I'm losing them slowly. :/ I'm in the process of buying several more and I thought I'd stop by to review them.
