Comments about Dunlop 418 Standard Tortex Guitar Picks (12 Picks):
I been using the same pick on my bass for over 6 months now. They last and grip well. Not everyone will like them, their edges are ruff and give a unique sound when playing that some players don't like as well as your generic celluloid picks. I saw Michael Angelo used them and gave them a try. I would no use any other picks, they just don't have the same feel or sound.

I have a lot of picks, but dunlop's tortex are my favorite ones,they don't slip off my hand like the other ones, i have them for so many time and they still great, i even made a necklace for me with one... They're not so good to play very fast solos, but they work for everything else!

Comments about Dunlop 418 Standard Tortex Guitar Picks (12 Picks):
Iv played these for a while, and they have one huge flaw; they do not stay still in your hands, they move around amd have bad grip. If im playing a solo, these are pretty unreliable. They are goid, but im replacing these with jazz 3 picks. Good for country or anything else not metal. Sure kirk hammett used them, but he switched to jazz 3 picks for they same reason; lack of grip. conclusion, id but dunlop jazz three picks instead.

Comments about Dunlop 418 Standard Tortex Guitar Picks (12 Picks):
The first pack of picks i owned was a pack of medium fenders. Them slipped out of my hand and just didnt feel right. These picks have an amazing grip that makes dropping them almost impossible I love that the tortex picks come in 6 different sizes that make finding the right pick much easier. The colors dont hurt but are easily better than the often boring styles that other picks come in
