Dunlop Tortex Standard .73mm Yellow Guitar Picks, 24 Pack

Tortex Picks, first released in 1981, were originally intended to be a high-quality replacement for tortoiseshell. However, Jim Dunlop's trail-blazing creation became so much more, establishing its own identity and becoming the new standard by which all other picks are judged.

Building on the precision, consistency, and color-coded gauge system he introduced with Nylon Picks, Jim Dunlop resolved to create a pick with a bright and snappy attack, superior memory and durability, and an improved grip. He chose Delrin as his base material and then 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 from all others, providing their unique grip-enhancing matte surface and aggressive attack.

The Tortex Picks are highly durable with great memory and just the right amount of flexibility, resulting in a snappy, fluid attack that's bright and crisp. Whether you're playing searing electric leads or strumming acoustic passages, the appeal of Tortex as a sonic paintbrush is universal. Jim Dunlop expanded on his previous picks' color-coded gauge system to create the bright and timeless palette that has become an industry standard.

Because Dunlop sticks to Jim's original formula, Tortex Picks remain the company's bestselling pick line, and they are still made at the Dunlop HQ in Benicia, California. The turtle logo is instantly recognizable, and the vibrant Tortex palette has become a gauging shorthand for guitar players. Go into any music store and ask for Green or Yellow Picks, and chances are you'll be shown a pack of Tortex .88mm or .73mm Picks.

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, the pick used by top musicians worldwide, Tortex Picks offer maximum memory and minimum wear, thanks to the ever-popular Tortex material.

With Tortex, Jim Dunlop launched a revolution, and the world of picks has never been the same. The Tortex Picks' durability, memory, and tone-shaping capabilities have made them an indispensable tool for musicians of all levels and styles, solidifying their status as an industry standard.
