DunlopTortex Triangle Guitar Picks 6 Pack .88 mm
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Six .88 mm Tortex picks in a triangle shape. For players who want a grippy matte pick with a bit more stiffness than medium.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players whose fingers slip on glossy picks
- Rhythm playing that needs a firmer attack than .73 mm
- Anyone who wants three usable tips per pick
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Light strummers who want a pick that flexes easily
- Players chasing the brightest, hardest pick attack
- Small-handed players used to compact teardrop picks
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
.88 mm
Medium-heavy. Noticeably firmer than .73 mm, so more attack on single notes and less give across a big chord.
Detail 03
Triangle shape
Three identical tips and a wide body. More surface to grip, and you rotate to a fresh tip as one wears.
Detail 04
6 pack
Six of one gauge and color, so your feel stays consistent as you lose them.
Detail 05
Green
Dunlop color-codes Tortex by gauge; green is the .88 mm, so you can identify thickness at a glance.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Only .88 mm here; if you're unsure of gauge, grab a thinner pack too
- 02The triangle body is much larger than a standard teardrop
- 03Tortex wears down with a fuzzy edge rather than staying sharp
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is .88 mm too heavy for strumming?
It's on the firmer side but still workable. Heavy acoustic strummers often prefer .60–.73 mm for more give across the strings.
02What does the green color mean?
Dunlop color-codes Tortex picks by thickness. Green is .88 mm, so you can grab the right gauge without measuring.
03How is this different from the Ultex triangle?
Tortex has a matte, grippy face and a slightly softer, warmer attack. Ultex is harder, glossier and brighter at the same thickness.
04Do all three corners work?
Yes. The tips are identical, so rotate the pick as each one wears and get roughly three tips out of every pick.
