First released in 1981 Tortex Picks were originally intended to be a high quality replacement for tortoiseshell. Jim Dunlop’s trail-blazing creation became so much more than that however establishing its own identity and becoming the new standard by which all other picks are judged. Building on the precision consistency and color-coded gauge system he introduced with Nylon Picks Jim resolved to create a pick with a bright and snappy attack superior memory and durability and an improved grip. He chose Delrin as his base material and then spent more than a year developing a special treatment process to draw out its full potential. This treatment process is what sets Tortex Picks apart from all others providing their unique grip-enhancing matte surface and aggressive attack. Finally Jim expanded on his previous picks’ color-coded gauge system to create the bright and timeless palette that has become an industry standard. Because we stick to Jim’s original formula Tortex Picks remain our bestselling pick line. And we still make them at the Dunlop HQ in Benicia California. With Tortex Jim Dunlop launched a revolution and the world of picks has never been the same. The turtle logo is instantly recognizable and the vibrant Tortex palette has become a gauging shorthand for guitar players. Go into any music store and ask for Green or Yellow Picks—chances are you’ll be shown a pack of Tortex .88mm or .73mm Picks. Countless musicians across the world representing every genre and playing style have chosen Tortex Picks to help them do what they love. Made in the USA.

from 19 reviewsVery quick mailing/delivery … packaged very thoroughly with abundance of bubble wrap 👍 the item in pristine condition… very easy and professional transaction… all the way from Japan even! Would definitely do business with them again.
Have done some test, love Takatsuki and also very responsive and trusted seller! Already bought 4 300b's of them and tested well with my RoeTest v11 professional tube Tester!
I bought this guitar and I am very happy with it. It had to travel half of the globe, but the shipping was fast and the seller answered all my questions via e-mail.
The guitar itself has a chunky Fretboard, but is playable with ease. As far I can tell, the electronics seem to be all good, stamp on the pickup is right, it needs more playing for further statements.
And to my biggest surprise: the guitar came almost perfectly intonated fresh out of box.
I highly recommend to at least get in touch with the seller if you're interested in one of his products.
