  • Dunlop Rock lll Jazz lll Picks

    Tried these new Dunlop Rock lll Jazz lll picks out and really impressed with them. Been awhile since I have used nylon. They're nice, but won't replace the Gator Jazz lll I normally use. A close 2nd, though.

    What makes them different than regular red Jazz IIIs? They look pretty similar. . . but maybe with a less pointy tip?

      They're bigger than the regulars and the tip is different. Different shape. Not as thick, either. I think these are better than the regulars.

        I don't have great experiences with nylon, but I'd try these out.

          Yeah I would try them. I used nothing but nylons for years when I first started playing guitar and these Rock lll picks do sound different.

            I will give these a try. I have been using Tortex picks since the 80's, except for briefly trying some Gator Grips. It must be my picking technique, but on any aggressive stuff I quickly wore down the Gators.

              The Jazz lll Gator Grips are the same. Doesn't take long to wear them down. I like the feel of them, though, and tone I get from them. The Rock lll will last a long time I say.

                Gator Grip is Tortex with a different finish.

                  I never knew for certain, until now. Then it must be something about the Gator's texture. I have some Tortex picks in guitar cases, that have been in there since the 80's. But I could grind up a Gator in one night. Sometimes two Gators if we were rehearsing a few aggressive tunes.

                    I just have never been able to gel with Jazz IIIs just too small for me. I guess that is why they make so many sizes, sizes, and different materials.
