Hard to say for me, but I always feel safe with a Jazz III lol.

    I refuse to use any pick other than Jazz III Max-Grip Carbon Fibre. Thick and rigid, tiny size, perfect shape. Doesn’t fly out of my sweaty hands. Perfect for thrash and its many 00000s.

    Dunlop Gator Grip 1,50 works very good for me, both for rhythmn and lead playing.

    Dunlop Ultex Sharp. Bright chirpy attack and minimal friction on the string for high speed picking. After about an hour of playing, the tip ends up perfectly beveled and stays that way for quite a while. The ultex doesn’t wear like other material does. Two guitar picks side by side. One has a sharper tip than the other.

    Jazz III White or black for me. Fast picking and precise, durable, grippy, super sensitive pinch harmonics. the white ones are much easier to find on a dark stage or the top of a black amp. “Regular” pick for scale

    Jazz III max grip.

    I love Jazz IIIs but ever since max grip I can’t do regular. Too slippery.

    Ultex Jazz III XL, like the regular jazz III in tone but actually large and grippy enough to stay between your fingers and more durable than nylon.

    Thin Ultex sharps for strummier and acoustic stuff.

    I like tortex but it wears out too quickly IMO.

    Jazz III is the one. I have Ultex, grip and classic ones and will use any of those pretty equally.

    No washboard, hard wearing, good control.

      I like the big stubby a lot of the time for multiple grips it’s great, or if I’m playing something faster I’ll use a daddario duralin precision 1.50mm that I like more when you choke up further

    I’ve used 1mm Tortex picks virtually exclusively for many years. I can identify the sound of one of those hitting the ground blindfolded.
