Detail 01
1.14 mm thickness
Stiff. Almost no flex, so the string moves instead of the pick. More volume and control, less forgiveness.

DunlopTortex Sharp Guitar Picks 1 Dozen 1.14 mm
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dozen 1.14 mm Tortex picks with a pointed tip. For lead and fast picking where you want stiffness and a focused attack.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Single-note lead lines needing a precise, focused attack
- Fast alternate picking or tremolo where a thin pick flexes
- Electric players who want a brighter, more defined note edge
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Light acoustic strumming — this stiffness sounds harsh
- Beginners still learning pick control and evenness
- Players who prefer a rounded tip's softer, broader attack
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
Sharp tip
Pointed rather than rounded. Concentrates attack into a narrower, brighter transient and slides off strings faster.
Detail 03
Tortex material
Delrin-based. Snappier and brighter than nylon, with a dry matte grip that holds without added texture.
Detail 04
Purple color
Dunlop's Tortex color code for 1.14 mm. Handy for grabbing the right gauge from a pile.
Detail 05
1 dozen quantity
12 picks, roughly 48 cents each. Enough to stock a case without committing to a bulk box.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Sharp tips wear to a rounded point faster than standard tips
- 02Loose picks, no tin or holder included
- 03Jumping from a thin pick to 1.14 mm takes a lighter touch to stay clean
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How thick is 1.14 mm compared to a standard pick?
Well above typical medium. A common medium sits near .73 mm, so this is close to heavy and barely flexes when you dig in.
02What is the difference between Sharp and standard Tortex?
Same material and thickness options, different tip. Sharp comes to a point for a tighter, brighter attack; standard is rounded and broader-sounding.
03Are Tortex picks slippery?
No. The matte surface gives dry grip without a printed texture, though it becomes slicker as the finish polishes with use.
04Is this good for bass?
Yes. 1.14 mm has the stiffness bass strings need, and the pointed tip gives a defined attack. Some bassists prefer even heavier.
