Blows other picks away!!!

Just today i tried these picks at my friends house. They belong to his brother and he is an amazing shredder. I can see why. These Dunlop Tortex Jazz Picks are so much better than 357's. They are smaller and they're a lot easier to grip. I find myself struggling to hold on to standard picks. I had no problem with these. They also are easier to create pinch harmonics with. Overall, amazing picks!

Decent pick

So . . . my son found these Jazz III picks. They are very small, thick and have some texture on them, due to the embossed writing on them. I really like the size, but he plays bass and I play acoustic. I researched these picks and thought they were very similar. Unfortunately, .50mm in a regular sized pick is not the same in this smaller sized pick. The pick is too thick/stiff, it doesn't compare to the bendability of a regular sized .50mm pick. Also, it does not have embossed writing on them, so they can slip out of your hand easier. Mostly, I would say, try them before you buy them.

    I have enjoyed using these periodically because they offer a nice sharp & precise tone, ideally for individual string pluckers. My main issue with these picks is while strumming. I keep a fairly tight grip while strumming, but these particular picks tend to turn inward, and I have to keep repositioning it so that the tip is faced correctly. There is no grip to it, so if your playing style involves keeping a death grip on your pick, perhaps you'll have better luck at keeping it straight than I do. I still use them about every day, but if I'm strumming heavily, I'll grab something else.

    The jazz 3s help my picking go to another level. I started using them and I can't go back. Essential for those classic Metallica riffs. #sweepstakes
