JIM DUNLOP Guitar Picks 0.88mm

Tortex Picks, first released in 1981, were originally intended to be a high quality replacement for tortoiseshell. However, Jim Dunlop’s creation became much more than that, establishing its own identity and setting a new standard for all other picks. Jim built on the precision, consistency, and color-coded gauge system he introduced with Nylon Picks, and set out to create a pick with a bright and snappy attack, superior memory and durability, and an improved grip. He chose Delrin as the base material and spent more than a year developing a special treatment process to draw out its full potential. This treatment process is what sets Tortex Picks apart, providing their unique grip-enhancing matte surface and aggressive attack. Jim expanded on his previous picks’ color-coded gauge system to create the bright and timeless palette that has become an industry standard. Tortex Picks remain the bestselling pick line, still made at the Dunlop HQ in Benicia, California.

With Tortex, Jim Dunlop launched a revolution, and the world of picks has never been the same. The turtle logo is instantly recognizable, and the vibrant Tortex palette has become a gauging shorthand for guitar players. Countless musicians across the world, representing every genre and playing style, have chosen Tortex Picks to help them do what they love. Made in the USA, Tortex flow picks combine the bright snap of Tortex picks with the geometry of flow picks, featuring a wide angle to focus your attack and a sharp tip for superior precision and articulation. Available gauges (mm): . 50, . 60, . 73, . 88, 1. 0, 1. 14, 1. 35 & 1. 5mm. Material: Tortex. Made in the USA. Model Number: 558P.88.
