Take your guitar playing to the next level with the Tortex Sharp Guitar Picks. These 1.35mm gauge picks, available in a pack of 12, are designed with a super sharp tip for enhanced precision and articulation. Crafted by the reputable brand, Dunlop, these picks are a testament to the company's commitment to quality and innovation in the world of guitar accessories.
First introduced in 1981, Tortex Picks were designed as a superior alternative to tortoiseshell picks. However, they quickly established their own identity, setting a new standard in the industry. Dunlop's founder, Jim Dunlop, introduced a precision, consistency, and color-coded gauge system with Nylon Picks, and sought to further improve this with the creation of Tortex Picks.
He selected Delrin as the base material for its bright and snappy attack, superior memory, and durability. After over a year of development, a special treatment process was devised to maximize the potential of Delrin. This unique process gives Tortex Picks their distinctive matte surface for improved grip and aggressive attack.
The vibrant color palette of Tortex Picks, an expansion of Jim's color-coded gauge system, has become an industry standard. The iconic turtle logo and the colors are instantly recognizable to guitarists worldwide. Whether you ask for Green or Yellow Picks in a music store, you're likely to be shown a pack of Tortex .88mm or .73mm Picks.
These black Tortex Sharp Guitar Picks are a popular choice among musicians of all genres and playing styles, thanks to their durability, versatility, and high-quality performance. Like all Dunlop products, these picks are proudly made in the USA, ensuring you're getting a product that stands up to rigorous standards of quality and craftsmanship. Experience the difference of Tortex Sharp Guitar Picks and elevate your music like never before.
