Dunlop 433P2.0 Ultex® Sharp, 2.0mm, 6/Player's Pack

Love the standards, love the sharps even more!They really wear so well also. Last forever for me and I play a lot

Stiffer than normal picks so I can use 73'3 with little flex. Excellent sound/attack with my nylon. Good price, arrived several days early. 🙂👍

The pick attacks on these are nice and snappy, and consistent. There is no "clack" on the plain strings, nor "scratch" on the wound strings, if you know what I mean. They glide across the strings with ease. I have the 1.4mm and the 2.0mm and both are fantastic. It's been several months of only using one pick of each thickness and I have not noticed any wear.Because the underlying material is pretty stiff, there isn't much difference between 1.4mm and 2.0mm in terms of rigidity. However, I find the 1.4mm easier to hold. The 2.0mm occasionally slips a bit... the pick is thick enough that if my finger or thumb end up near the edge, it will slide down that relatively steep bevel on the pick edge. The 1.4mm is just thick enough to feel and play like a heavy pick, but thin enough that the bevel (which I wouldn't do without because it helps the pick glide better) doesn't present a slipping problem.One other thing to note is that these picks solve a problem I didn't know I had... when I play in the upper registers (17th fret and up) of the upper strings there is a tendency for the notes to get "plinky" when I use other picks. Hard to explain, but maybe you know what I'm talking about—all you hear is the pick attack, and very little of the actual note. Somehow, these picks cause those upper notes to ring loud and clear. It sounds great.Overall, both picks are better, in my opinion, than any of the other picks I own, which is a lot. By the way, this includes other picks of the same material but different shape, and other picks of the same shape but different material. The 1.4mm Ultex Sharp is just exactly perfect for me, but I'd still take the 2.0mm over any of my other picks if I had to.

I found my perfect pick. I've been trying out many different picks every since I started playing guitar. For a long time I was a die-hard Jazz III user, but found they were just a little too small for me to comfortably slam out chords. I tried the sharp-tipped Gravity and V-picks as well, but found that they felt too thick and stiff for anything but lead work.Then I found these, and they're just perfect. The 1.14 mm Ultex sharps have (almost) everything i want - the perfect size and tip, just enough flex to make chords comfortable, an grippy material, and snappy top-end tone. On top of all that, they're dirt cheap if you buy them in bulk.My one complaint is that they wear out super fast. I use 10-52 strings in standard tuning, and I play a lot of hard, heavy power chords, Metallica-style. Under my abuse, these picks only last for about 30 minutes before the edges and tips are blunted, and I have to sharpen them up on some sandpaper to make them usable again. Most people are not nearly as abusive to their picks as I am, so this may be a non-issue for you.

Just like the title says... These picks are very unforgiving, in all the best ways. Every detail of your technique punches through loud and clear. When it’s my turn to take one of the lead breaks in a fiddle tune, I no longer feel like I have to wind-up like I’m about to swing a ball-bat just to get out on top. What’s really great is they don’t have that overly plastic-y, unnaturally bright sound to them, which some companies employ, in order to perceive a volume increase. Every move made sounds much more deliberate, especially when picking a lead in the low register. But beware... if you haven’t been keepin’ up on your chops, well... that’s gonna shine through just as well.I’m my personal opinion, it’s damn near the perfect pick. I haven’t seen or heard a material as “all inclusive” as Ultex, BUT... if you’ve ever played using a “Snarling Dogs” pick, or one of the models by “Cool Picks”, you gotta know their “Cat Tongue” grip cant be beat. Not even close... I don’t understand why, but nobody has attempted a line of Ultex picks, that have the Cat Tongue grip... I know there’s one company that owns the technology, but it has sold/leased it to a few other companies to use, so it’s not like it’s impossible to get. It’s really very strange actually. I’ve tried to contact most major pick manufacturers about it, and even offered to pay whatever they would charge to just demo the idea and send me a bag of whatever happens... nobody can give me a straight answer though, and most companies don’t even respond.Anyway, until someone decides to help me out, I’ll keep asking. And I’ll keep using these Dunlop sharp Ultex picks. Like I said... not perfect, but damn close.

Pickup is to material made. Has great fill and rigidity to thickness ratio.I will recommendthickness 2.0 and 3.0 forcelectric guitarThickness 1.00 and 1.4 for acoustic guitarYou need all those 4 thicknesses to cover allplaying styles in each guitar type.Ultex is the best which is actually a brand name from Fender to a material called Ultem which it's chemical composition is Polyetherimide which is a type of plastic . By the way it is a thermoplastic material meaning by heating it you can remould it .Very durable material , more then Nylon and Celuloid and Tortex ...

These are made from a good material, but I have had a hard time holding on to them.

Great picks and they have a great sound when hitting the strings... easy to hold and no slippage.
