Detail 01
.96 mm gauge
Firm end of medium. Barely flexes, so pick attack transfers to the string rather than bending away.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Twelve .96 mm picks with a molded textured grip surface. For players who lose grip on smooth picks or play hard enough to sweat one loose.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rhythm players who drop smooth picks mid-song
- Sweaty-handed players in hot rooms or long sets
- Anyone restocking a pick jar in bulk
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a thin flexible pick for strumming
- Anyone who dislikes textured surfaces against the fingers
- Fast lead players preferring a thinner, faster-releasing tip
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Textured grip surface
The molded pattern grabs skin, so the pick stays put without a death grip. Cuts hand fatigue over long sets.
Detail 03
Standard 351 shape
The most common pick outline. Rounded shoulders, medium point — familiar in the hand if you have played anything.
Detail 04
One dozen per pack
Twelve picks means you can seed a case, a stand, a pocket and a pedalboard and still have spares.
Detail 05
Purple color coding
Dunlop colors track gauge across the line, so you can grab the right thickness by sight in a dark room.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01The grip texture wears smooth over time on heavily played picks
- 02At .96 mm these are stiff — thin-pick strummers should size down
- 03Twelve picks only; no case, holder or tin included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is .96 mm thick or thin?
Firm medium. Thicker than the .73 mm most beginners start on, thinner than the 1.14 mm and up that lead players favor. Good for rhythm with definition.
02Does the grip texture come off on your fingers?
No. The texture is molded into the pick body, not applied as a coating, so it does not rub off. It can polish smooth with heavy use.
03How is this different from a Tortex pick?
Gator Grip uses a molded textured surface for hold. Tortex has a matte finish. Gator Grip is the grippier of the two.
04Will these work for bass?
Yes. At .96 mm they are stiff enough for bass strings, and the grip helps with the heavier attack bass playing usually takes.
