TORTEX� STANDARD GUITAR PICK
Tortex Picks are highly durable with great memory and just the right amount of flexibility for 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.
 
First released in 1981, Tortex Picks were originally intended to be a high quality replacement for tortoiseshell, but became so much more than that, establishing its own identity and becoming the new standard by which all other picks are judged.
 
Building on the precision, consistency, and colour coded system, Jim resolved to create a pick with a bright and snappy attack, superior memory and durability, with 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.
 
With Tortex, Jim Dunlop launched a revolution, and the world of picks has never been the same. The turtle logo is instantly recognisable, 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. And still made at the Dunlop HQ in Benicia, California.
