Jim Dunlop PVP101 Variety Medium/Light Guitar Pick Player Pack (Pack of 12)

good picks, great quality and good durability. a nice range of sizes to best suit your needs and comfort. great if your looking to try new pics

I've had lots of plain plastic guitar picks of various thicknesses, but I always find them a bit slippery to hold (perhaps because I mostly fingerpick so I don't use a plectrum regularly). I was wondering about getting some fancier picks to see if they would improve the grip, but didn't want a pack of one style only to find I didn't like them. With this pack I could test a variety of thicknesses, shapes, materials and grip types to find the ones I liked. For me it was very much the ones with a textured grip area and, to my surprise, of these I preferred the thicker ones (previously I'd thought I preferred medium thickness).So this pack was great for allowing me to figure out my preference, and now I can buy more of the types that I liked.These would also make a great small gift any guitarist.

UPDATE:Got the John Petrucci 6 pack.Best to worst:1. Trinity2. Primetone Jazz 33. Flow 2.0 oxblood4. JP Jazz 3 customWhy?Well no surprise here all 4 varieties are made of ultex and therefore all sound great with varying levels of bass output which is directly proportional to the mass of each pick.The trinity is the best evolution of the ultex jazz 3. Same height as the jazz 3, but with the flow contours to combine fast release off the strings and extreme control for technical playing. The only thing it lacks compared to the standard ultex flow picks (and the max-grip series) is the level of grip. The matt surface and raised logos add some grip, but the reason this stays put is actually the triangular shape of the pick gets wedged in the way I hold the pick, so it does not budge.The other picks in this pack are known quantities, but for me the JP Flow and JP custom jazz 3 both lack grip to the point where they are bar of soap slippery rendering useless for playing more 'intense' styles of music. The primetone jazz 3 is nice and matt so it grips much the same as the trinity pick.Shred Variety pack review:This pack is a good way of trying out the usual suspects of the picks used to play more demanding styles of music like metal or jazz.Having been a jazz 3 player (everything from the OG, to the Stiffo, ultex, tortex, XL series, max grip) for over 10 years, I was awaiting to see whether the hype surrounding the flow picks was justified.For my tastes, yes the hype is justified. The flow 1.5 and 2.0 are the best two picks in this pack.Order would go:Ultex flowThe jazz 3sJazz 3 XLUltex sharpTortex flowTortex sharpDelrin 500 primegripReason behind this ranking is that the ultex flow picks, combine the best attributes of the Dunlop picks for technical styles.Best material for bright tone and note projection. Sharp tip and bevelled edge for playing fast with ease. Really good grip, albeit not quite as grippy as the max grip jazz 3. Oh and very durable material. Having used the ultex jazz 3 previously I can attest to this.For me, this set proves that ultex picks give the best tone, especially for down tuned guitars or extended range guitars.My advice - choose whichever Dunlop ultex pick suits your fingers and grip / technique.

A gerat selection of guitar picks. Good to be able to try them all and find which ones work best for you. Usual Dunlop quality! Recommended
