THE MESSIAH HAS ARRIVED ! - I award 50 STARS for these picks! After breaking enough Gibson light gauge picks to keep me in broken picks for the rest of eternity, I have now found in these THE SAVIOUR of the beginning acoustic guitarist (together with Martin SP 80/20 Acoustic Guitar Strings - Bronze Wound Extra (Light, .010 - .047)). THIS IS THE PICK TO END ALL PICKS. Hold this in your hand and feel something that is truly up to the job, both flexible AND strong, and after a couple of weeks of my fairly hard-hitting amateur playing IT HAS SURVIVED. My Gibson light picks broke at around two a day, that was a £1 a day habit, £350 a year. But now striking the strings just feels so much better. Going from Light strings to Extra Light strings made a big difference too (though the D'Addario ones broke the high E on stringing them). AND NOW I can almost play Tangled Up In Blue, probably the greatest popular song EVER. I could not ever imagine a pick being so important but the fact is it is COLLOSALLY IMPORTANT - if your a beginner like me, GET THIS PICK (and check out EXTRA LIGHT guitar strings). IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE Review: Excellent Pick For Beginners - Who would have thought there is so much to think about when choosing a pick! Anyhow, I did some research and decided to try Tortex picks .50. I'm a beginner, just learning first few chords, and the pick seems perfect. It's got a nice light texture so secure to hold. It has a decent amount of flex with enough rigidity to grab the strings but enough flex to play smoothly. You also get 12 in a pack, which should last a while even with regular playing. ## Features - Fantastic quality guitar picks - World famous brand - Essential for any guitarist - Minimum wear - Made in the usa ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002GX7XY | | Best Sellers Rank | 41 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 3 in Picks | | Body Material Type | Tortex | | Brand | Jim Dunlop | | Brand Name | Jim Dunlop | | Colour | Green 0.88mm | | Compatible Devices | Guitar | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 16,000 Reviews | | Finish Type | shiny | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00710137017368 | | Guitar Pick Thickness | 0.88 millimeters | | Guitar pick thickness | 0.88 millimeters | | Included Components | 12 guitar picks | | Item Dimensions | 6.4 x 0.8 x 4.3 centimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W | 6.4L x 4.3W centimetres | | Item Weight | 9 g | | Manufacturer | Jim Dunlop | | Manufacturer Part Number | 418P.88 | | Material | Tortex | | Material Type | Tortex | | Model Name | Tortex | | Model Number | 418P.88 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 12 | | Product Warranty | 1. | | Set Name | Pack 12 | | Size | 0.88mm | | Sound Profile | Bright | | Style | Pack 12 | | UPC | 710137017368 | | Unit Count | 1 unit | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Jim Dunlop - **Colour:** Green 0.88mm - **Guitar pick thickness:** 0.88 millimeters - **Material:** Tortex - **Size:** 0.88mm ## Images ![418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nF84OCNaL.jpg) ![418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91cF6odMSIL.jpg) ![418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hReqPCE7L.jpg) ![418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713ldzvD6sL.jpg) ![418P.88 Tortex Standard Player Pack (Pack of 12) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81eSFRhjvIL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is the 88mm good for bass🤔🤔?** A: That’s why I use them. I play bass and guitar and they work beautifully. **Q: I got the green but they are very loud strumming, can you recommend something else? I play unplugged** A: You need something thinner if the green dunlop is too harsh for you. I assume you are playing acoustic? If so I would suggest the .6mm orange dunlops or .5mm red dunlops. If electric id try the .6mm orange or .73mm yellow. The yellow isn't THAT much thinner than the green though.... **Q: I just bought a Yamaha Classical C40 II on Amazon, did not come with Dunlop picks like It was supposed too. Anybody know what Gauge is best to use?** A: As a beginner, you may want to try light. Around .5mm or so. But there is not right or wrong pick to use. It is totally and 100% a personal preference. Just try a bunch of different types until you find one you like best. **Q: does the package have a sticker?** A: A sticker? ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HALLELUJAH !
