I use the red Jazz III's, I pretty much hate playing with anything else. Although a few years ago I had some lovely Steve Vai Ibanez picks that were fantastic.

On electric anything other than a Jazz III feels wrong. Acoustics I use any .88.

Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Is there a difference? I played Dunlop 500s for a while but I'm just used to Tortex and have stuck with them.

I like mine as they have the little bumpy bit that stops it slipping from my sweaty fingers, and they have a decent amount of flex.

Tortex is great!

Just look at the superior point the Jazz III has, much better for playing with!

Nah, don't think so. 2mm or something.

How so? I prefer quite a lot of the pick to make contact with the string when I play. If Tortex are good enough for John Sykes, they're good enough for me.
