Detail 01
1.0 mm
Middle of the road. Stiff enough to drive single notes, still flexes a little on full chord strums.

Independent shopping perspective
A dozen 1.0 mm Tortex Sharp picks. Medium-heavy gauge with a pointed tip, for players who want articulation without a fully rigid pick.

What matters in use
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 01
Middle of the road. Stiff enough to drive single notes, still flexes a little on full chord strums.
Detail 02
Pointed rather than rounded. Cleaner note definition and less drag through the strings than a standard shape.
Detail 03
Matte, slightly chalky surface that resists slipping when your hands sweat. Wears down gradually rather than chipping.
Detail 04
Twelve picks. Enough that losing a few mid-set doesn't matter, without committing to a bulk bag.
Detail 05
Dunlop uses color to mark gauge across the Tortex line, so blue reads as 1.0 mm at a glance in a pick jar.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Medium-heavy. Thin picks run around 0.5 mm and heavy ones past 1.5 mm, so 1.0 mm sits in the middle with a slight amount of flex.
Same material and thickness, pointier tip. The sharper point gives you a more precise, brighter attack and slides through strings with less resistance.
Yes. At 1.0 mm you get decent volume and definition on acoustic, though heavy strummers sometimes prefer something thinner for a looser feel.
Twelve, all 1.0 mm.
