What’s your favorite pick?

Mine the Dunlop Jazz III XL.
Uni turned me onto the Jazz III XL ULTEX picks.
They’re also very cool. Different material.

I tried using the jazz 3 max grip for a few months and I felt that it didn’t really reach my somewhat high expectations of it. It’s actually quite softer than the classic red nylon jazz 3 and the grip surface kinda works against the pick as a whole because of that softness.

I’m now back to using the regular sized black stiffo jazz 3 and I couldn’t be happier. Still the best picks for me.

i have switched to these - they are smooth on both sides and feel a lot nicer than the regular jazz iii picks

Been using these for a few months. Really digging them. Nice attack and I like that they don't "give" without being too thick.
