For guitar enthusiasts seeking a perfect blend of tone, feel, speed, and precision, the Tortex TIII Guitar Picks are an ideal choice. These 1.50mm gauge picks, available in a pack of 72, are designed with the iconic Jazz III tip, offering a unique combination of Tortex's signature tone and feel with the unparalleled speed and precision of Jazz III.
First introduced in 1981, Tortex Picks were initially conceived as a superior alternative to tortoiseshell picks. However, the innovative design by Jim Dunlop transcended its original purpose, setting a new benchmark in the world of guitar picks. The Tortex TIII picks are a testament to Dunlop's commitment to precision, consistency, and a color-coded gauge system, a tradition that began with Nylon Picks.
The Tortex TIII picks are crafted from Delrin, a material chosen for its bright, snappy attack, exceptional memory, durability, and improved grip. Dunlop spent over a year perfecting a unique treatment process to maximize the potential of Delrin. This process is what distinguishes Tortex Picks from the rest, offering a unique matte surface for enhanced grip and an aggressive attack.
The Tortex TIII picks continue the legacy of the color-coded gauge system, featuring a vibrant and timeless palette that has become an industry standard. Adhering to Jim Dunlop's original formula, these picks are still the bestsellers in our line. Each pick is proudly made at the Dunlop HQ in Benicia, California.
With the launch of Tortex, Jim Dunlop sparked a revolution in the guitar pick industry. The instantly recognizable turtle logo and the vibrant Tortex palette have become synonymous with quality and precision among guitar players.
