    Too Rigid

    Dunlop Tortex TrianglePublished on 05/13/12 at 14:23

    I've played for a while and I still have quite a collection.
    I tried lots of picks.
    I love the triangle shape for bass.
    The 1,14mm is just too stiff for my taste, even for high tiran bass strings, hardly do we force the pick is imposed on the ropes a huge deflection. In short these picks are too powerful, they have to be perfect for bassists with a low attack on the ropes and looking to have a big sound ... but it is not (or more) in my case.

    Versatile and standard

    I used up the last week, classic Tortex 0.88mm and 1mm Tortex triangle for my bass and I thought, why not combine the comfort of the triangle and the attack on the old 0.88. Verdict: This is really good! It is comfortable and easy to handle, contrary to what one might think or hear. They are everywhere, it is "easy access", you can play any style quite easily. I think I'll use a very long time!
    I recommend it to those who still have a bit of trouble choosing THE good mediator and more versatile as it is comfortable for the tremolo for the rhythm a little funk ... For example!

    powerful and solid

    I've used it for more than a year of its small pieces of plastic roses, and I never managed to break into one, either with my guitar (pulling 11-52) or with my bass (45-105 ).

    The shot of the three angles is simpa on bass, plectrum is wide and coated with talc (which does not take more than one hour, damage), you do not lose often. on the other hand, when it wears, it becomes almost round, thus you lose attack for those who scratch with coins, it will not interfere.

    For the guitar, they are good for me too, but I still prefer to return to a more basic, to gain precision and attack.

    The big plus for me is that they are very hard, and not too thick, maybe a little too hard, when you …

    The big plus for me is that they are very hard, and not too thick, maybe a little too hard, when you attack as an ox during the hours it was soon having small pains thumb, the trick does not bend a bit.

    After trying dozens of picks (0.50 dunlop any kind, gibson, fender, ...), I was stopped on this one, but I am left on the same range of 1.00, more flexible and less tiring to use.

    I like the triangle shape for bass.
    The 1.14 mm is just too rigid for my taste, even for low high ropes tyrant, just strength does one pick on the strings we impose a huge deflection. In short these picks are too powerful, they must be perfect for bass players who have a low attack on the ropes and looking to have a big sound ... but it is not (or more) for me.

    My pick low

    I use it since I use a pick for bass.

    As all the world I tried full of models.

    I like its large size which allows it to be held securely when mistreats bass strings to strong tyrant. In 1.00 mm, it is best for me: 1.14 in the pick is too rigid and powerful and 0.88 it is too thin and tends to have a weak attack on the strings and bow.
    With the grip it would have been better, considering its size and because the large area of ​​skin contact, if you play too long it slide.
    This is what I found best for the bass but rather to me playing fingers, I'm still looking for the pick favorite that will give me really want to develop the technique of play ..

    The price / quality ratio and normal for a pick of this format.

    I would do this choice, I use it for too long to be able to do without.

    Only a few players can actually use picks like these properly. I've seen Devin Townsend use similar shaped picks in maybe a heavier gauge. However I just wanted to try them out and experiment with sounds and my picking technique. My first impressions of these picks were that they basically looked like 3 picks in one since they had 3 sharp ends that I could use, which is saving money and saving picks! Cool huh? And then I started playing guitar with'em and things changed. I can't say that it's as comfortable as a regular pick would be in terms of the way you grip it and position the pick since it's so big and fat and not rounded on either side, you have to try to find a good positioning to g…

And then I started playing guitar with'em and things changed. I can't say that it's as comfortable as a regular pick would be in terms of the way you grip it and position the pick since it's so big and fat and not rounded on either side, you have to try to find a good positioning to get the pick gripped in right between your fingers without feeling too uncomfortable if you're used to a conventional pick. I’ve also seen ben weinman of DEP use these exact picks live and never really figured out how he does it. For leads it’s decent, it gives of this smooth flow-like strike when playing leads but it doesn’t seem or feel to be so accurate simply because of the way you have to grip it, although it actually IS JUST as accurate as other picks in that sense, it’s doesn’t feel that way compared to a conventional pick. For strumming or something not so precise in terms of playing, it works fine, you can do anything with it loosely and you’ll be fine. I just find that when soloing I can’t seem to get the exact or right feel that I’m looking for or that I’m used to with conventional shaped/sized picks. Maybe this is my own problem that I’ve completely accustomed myself to traditional picks. The quality of the pick is exactly the same as the regular tortex line, however so no complaints there.
