All user reviews for the Dunlop Jazz III Nylon

I agree with the view Previous (Undertaker) and I use the mini mdiators for the same reasons.
I used this before mdiator mini stubby 2mm in dunlop. being given that I could not find these in all mdiators mags I tried the Jazz III level which is close enough size ... I fell in love with this mdiator!

I recall the feeling I had playing with the mini stubby, but the sound with jazz III I like a lot more ...
I tried a bunch of matrial and shape level mediator (the cellulodes, which gives a too plastoc I got, the flexible, hard, wood, bone, mtal ...).
I prfre far the mini trs hard!
the sound caused by the contact of jazz chords and III: I find a trs trs hot soup, how to say a must try and compare all about feeling: D
I now use Jazz III 99% of the time, the rest is a Gator Grip 2mm

When I was first starting to play guitar I experimented with a lot of different things to see what I liked. I recommend everyone do this when you first start. In my first couple years of playing I tried out a few different types of picks. The Jazz 3 was one of them. The Jazz 3 has a few features I like and a few I dont. I still use them from time to time and I can see why people like them. Many shred guitar players use Jazz 3 picks. Shred guitar players tend to like these picks because of their sharp tip. The sharp tip is really good for playing fast. It allows you to get a nice bite on the string even if you barely touch it. With the sharp tip you can be extra precise in your picking while still playing fast and light. With its small size and tip you can be very economical in your picking motion and economics are the key to speed. The small size is the only reason I do not go to these picks first when I am playing. With the small size I have a tendency to drop these picks. I also noticed that when playing hard with these picks they sometimes turn around in my hand. This may not happen to you or anyone else but these are my personal experiances with these picks. When playing heavy the small size does not give me a lot of room to hold on to the pick. The Gator Grip 2mm picks I prefer to use are full sized and have a non slip sandpaper like surface on them. You can really dig in to everything you play with those picks and they will not go anywhere. They now have larger versions of the Jazz 3 out called the Jazz 3 XL. I may have to check those out and see if I change my mind. If you are looking for a super sharp pick that is as precise as a surgeons scalpel this pick is for you.

Up until about a year and a half ago, I was using a plethora of picks, never being quite satisfied with any of them enough to settle down with one and use it on a regular basis. I guess the closest I had come to being happy with the feel and sound of a pick prior to the Jazz III was with the regular sized Tortex .88 picks. They always had a clumsy feel though and weren't substantial enough. Also, I couldn't tightly control my lead playing with regular sized picks.

Back in '09, my buddy handed me his red Jazz III and said "here, try this". I can't believe I never tried one until then, but once I did, it was love at first strum! Sure it took a couple days for my playing to really adjust to the pick, but I can honestly say that I've become a much more efficient player since switching to the smaller Jazz III. The smaller size and pointed end have allowed me to do things with my playing that I couldn't quite do before. Sweep picking is now much less difficult and sounds smoother. The annoying "clicking sound that was always present with the regular picks isn't as noticeable with the Jazz III.

All in all, there is just more control and efficiency with this pick, and it allows me to be a better player and enjoy the guitar more. Another cool thing about the Jazz III is how natural it feels, no matter what side of the pick I'm using. For example, for intricate runs and scalar patterns where I pick every note cleanly and quickly, I can use the hard pointed tip of the Jazz for very precise and clean sounding results. When I switch to legato mode and throw in sweeps I can rotate the pick, using the slightly harder, smoother and more "glassy" rounded edge for smooth runs that blur together and play effortlessly. Regular picks allow you do use their different edges as well, but there is much more resistance.

Dunlop has several picks available in the Jazz range, including Jazz I, II, and III picks, which have the same size and shape, but differ in gauge. They also offer Ultex Jazz III picks, which are made from a very durable material that resists wear and has a smooth release on the strings giving the pick a very glassy sound and feel. Dunlop have recently added Tortex picks to the Jazz III line as well. I haven't played one yet as they've only just been released, but I'm looking forward to grabbing some so I can compare them to the rest of the line!

The standard Jazz III shape comes in red and black, and you'll hear many guitarists argue that one or the other has a better or somehow different tone, despite the fact that they're both crafted from the same materials and are the same thickness and weight. I honestly did hear and feel a slight difference between the red and black IIIs. The red seemed to be a bit darker, while the black one resembled the Ultex Jazz with a more glassy and slippery feel and tone; ha ha, guitarists are an obsessive bunch!

If you have been living under a rock forever (like I apparently was for years) and are finding that your standard size picks are feeling clumsy and holding you back as a player, give the Jazz III a shot, and give it a couple days to settle into your picking style. I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Exellent pick .. I tried a lot of picks for the moment (all tortex, picks and felt a big part of the range dunlop) and I can easily say that this pick is almost perfect in every domaines.Je repeat .. Because for almost a bit funky rhythms .. I find it too dur.Il is smaller than the others, but its small size, this pick offers incredible attack and dynamics exellent.

I also use it with my Jazz Bass and there .. I'm doing something a little spécial.Je plays with the edge "round" of the pick (ie upside down) to get a sound close to the game fingers (I can not do because of tendon problems) and I get a more than convincing.

I would do if the choice was to do and I highly recommend it.

The Dunlop Jazz 3 guitar picks, are a smaller brand of picks that happen to be my favorite size. Since they discontinued the Everly Jazz Star III picks, I have been playing with the Dunlop Jazz 3s. They are very similar in their feel, the only difference being that the Everly picks have a little star in the middle of them. I've definitely adapted to using the Dunlop Jazz 3s very quickly as they have a great feel and are easy to play with. I don't have the biggest hands in the world, so having a small pick is a real necessity for me. I like it to be a slight extension of my finger, just sticking out enough to strike the string of the guitar. Not only are they the perfect size for me, but they are also the right amount of sturdiness, as they aren't at all flimsy. At the same time, they also aren't too heavy and thick. While I could do it if I had to, I really don't like playing with any other style of pick other than the Jazz ones. Perhaps it is because I've gotten really used to it, but for me there is no better pick. While I do wish that they still made the Everly Jazz IIIs, the Dunlop Jazz 3s are really a fine substitute and I don't see myself playing with any other pick anytime soon. While these aren't the most readily available picks, you can definitely find them in guitar shops that have a larger selection of picks, and certainly online. They are priced the same as just about any other guitar pick, so price should really not be a consideration when it comes to picks. While I can't say that I would necessarily recommend them, as picks are a very personal thing, I will say that a lot of players find these very easy to play with, myself included. If you're thinking that the Dunlop Jazz 3 picks might be a good fit for you, I'd highly encourage you to try playing with one when you get a chance, as they have really worked out great for me...
