In the early 1980's, looking to replace Tortoise shell as a pick making material, Jim Dunlop created Tortex.  Tortex guitar picks have become some of Dunlop's most popular and best selling picks, and have been played by many artists from different styles of music, from country to heavy metal.

Dunlop Tortex Standard guitar picks are harder than nylon, giving you much more edge and bite.  You'll get a more aggressive sound out of Tortex picks than what you can typically get out of nylon.

Tortex also retains it's shape with much better memory than Nylon.  Tortex picks will last show after show, and still give you the same great tone you had the first time you played.

Dunlop Tortex Standard guitar picks come in a wide variety of gauges, suited for any playing style.
