Dunlop Tortex Flow Guitar Picks - .88 mm Green (12-pack) Reviews
Originally designed to replicate the feel of a tortoiseshell pick, Dunlop’s Tortex line has since outgrown its iconic tortoise mascot, revolutionizing the world of guitar picks for over 40 years. Before Tortex picks came along, guitar players could only choose from a limited selection of plectrums that often came in only three ambiguous sizes: light, medium, and heavy. Jim Dunlop sought to provide a solution by arming players with a complete range of thickness standardized to the 100th of a millimeter, and easily recognizable by Dunlop’s signature color-coded system. Excellent durability, perfect grip, and snappy tone have made Tortex the industry-standard pick for guitar players around the world. Whether you’re a pro or just beginning your musical journey, you can be sure that there’s a Tortex pick for you!

New Favorite Picks
I had always been somewhere between loving the standard Tortex picks and the Jazz III/Jazz III XL. These have the feel and snap of the tortex picks while also having the tip and the positive release of the Jazz III picks. This means they're just as at home strumming as they are picking and chugging. I've got a couple different thicknesses and they're all great.
This is a 5 star pick, the new cheap ink stinks.
I love this pick, and have it in two other sizes .73 and 1.35. Whatever Dunlop is doing with the black ink, needs to be reverted. Just like the black ink on the .73 it melts and smears all over my fingers turning them black along with the pick. The black ink doesn't smear or fade on my TIII or Tortex Standards (which I've had for a while ~1 year+ so I can't tell you if that is an issue on all picks made this year or not. I have to take extra steps to get the black ink off with 95% Isopropyl alchohol, just to make them usable without irritation. I had to do the same alchohol wipe on the .73mm as well. Despite having to do this, I still highly recommend it, based on the Tortex & shape. I really hope that Dunlop get's this figured out before I have to order my next batch of picks.
