These are literally the best picks I've ever used. I was introduced to them by a family member over Christmas. I jammed with them once and was hooked. I don't know about everyone else, but I move around and sweat when I play, especially on stage. As opposed to other picks that might slide out of my hand, these picks don't go anywhere. Amazing, and they have no limitations what so ever. Dare I say perfect.

what can I say.. these are the greatest picks ever they are totally awesome the only thing is that the get sharp after a while even though i use .88 but they are still the best.. but don't believe i've been suggested i'm preety savage with guitars haha

I'm a pretty new guitarist, and I probably tried hundreds of different picks. Until I met "The Tortex". My playing improved dramatically with these amazing picks. They give an amzing grip, even when wet or sweaty, and they are very precise. They are also pretty cheap. The only negative side I found, was that that the logo tends to wear away after a while, but that doesn't matter at all. If you're looking for grip, there you have it.

These picks are excellent, I think. I play classic stuff like Rush and Maiden and Metallica. I use the yellow ones (.73 mm) cause they aren't rigid like the purples...I need some flexibility in them. These don't break and they're great for extended use, meaning I don't change them out every day I play, which is to say EVERY day for at least 2 hours. Best picks I've ever used.

I've only been playing for 23 months, so I'm no expert. I know what I like. I'm a strummer, and these picks make my music sound cleaner than any others I've tried. I recommend them. Try different colors/thicknesses until you find what fits your style. Mine's mostly Red/.50.
