1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Twelve medium-gauge Tortex picks at .88 mm. A working thickness for strumming and flatpicking that most guitarists can live on full time.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who lose picks and want a dozen on hand
- Mixed rhythm and lead work in one pick
- Anyone wanting grip that survives sweaty hands
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Heavy-gauge players who want a stiff, thick pick for lead
- Light strummers who prefer flex on acoustic rhythm
- Players who prefer a slick, polished pick surface
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
Tortex material
Matte, slightly powdery surface that grips without a coating. Wears down gradually instead of chipping.
Detail 03
T3 shape
Sharper tip than the standard Tortex teardrop. More attack and precision on single notes.
Detail 04
Green color
Dunlop color-codes Tortex by gauge. Green always means .88 mm, so you can grab the right one blind.
Detail 05
12-pack
Roughly a year of casual playing, or a few months of gigging. Cheaper per pick than singles.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Tortex grip fades as the matte surface polishes with use.
- 02Pick gauge is personal — try a mixed pack before committing to twelve.
- 03The sharper T3 tip wears faster than a rounded standard tip.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does .88 mm feel like?
Medium. It has some give when you strum but stays firm enough for single-note lines. If you're unsure where to start, this gauge is the common default.
02What is the difference between T3 and standard Tortex?
Same material and thickness options, different shape. T3 has a sharper, more pointed tip for a defined attack. The standard Tortex tip is rounder and softer sounding.
03Does the green color mean anything?
Yes. Dunlop codes Tortex picks by thickness, and green is .88 mm. The color tells you the gauge at a glance.
04Are these good for acoustic guitar?
Yes. At .88 mm they handle acoustic strumming and flatpicking well. Players who want more flex for soft rhythm often go thinner instead.
