I like Jazz iii picks. What do you use?

[Corey James]

I think i found my new pick. Ernie Ball mini prodigy 1.5
Sounds brighter and i like the beveled edges

I like these as well. I wish they made it in 1 mm.

I prefer Winspear Tapered Mini Shivs as long as I have one. Otherwise, the Dunlop Tortex Jazz III 1.14mm works fine.

Winspear Tapered Mini Shivs are hard to get, though. I've been buying them for years so I have many, but they're almost always sold out.

Is it slightly larger than a Jazz III?

I’d say its actually a hair smaller than jazz iii. I lined them up and they are very close but the prodigy feels smaller as well

Not sure I would like smaller than a Jazz III, LOL. In between a Jazz III and a Jazz III XL is perfect.

Yea i’d say it fits just inside the edges of a jazz iii. They are close but the mini prodigy isnt for you then. They make orher sizes also you may want to check into. Its a great feeling and sounding pick to my ears

I used Jazz III for over a decade and switched back to the Yellow. I use all the colors. But Yellow the most.
Last few years I use the free Red from Guitar Center the most.

I find I can use any pick. I much prefer the sound of the attack of the Standard 351 pick. The rounded tip just sounds so much bigger and more raw than the pointed tip. I definitely chose picks for the sound. Not the way they feel when playing.

I switch how I hold the pick continuously to get the tone and attack I want. Standard and Benson I use most.

I have hundreds of different types of picks. Anyone else have a ludicrous amount of different types of picks ???

Yea i have a lot of picks and will end up with more i know. Its a relatively cheap addiction trying all the different picks lol. Unless you buy a Bluechip pick etc……

Hawk TB6, wee bit bigger than a jazz3 xl, lasts far longer and seems to glide over strings

 

[Greazygeo]

Used purple tortex jazz iii for years. Then Big Stubby 2.0-3.0… then got into playing funk rhythm guitar. Settled on 1.0 mm Ultex sand used them 10-15 years. Now I hate the sound of them. Just switched to Clayton .80 mm. They are a small amount larger, kinda weird.
Im weird and use the round edge.

I only use the finest of Kroger membership savings card pick punchouts.
