Tortex III picks are manufactured to give the characteristic maximum memory and minimum wear.
The Long Story.
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.

COMBINED SHIPPING:
If
you are ordering from more than one of our listings, note that we can
offer you reduced combined shipping ONLY if you use 'Buy it now' on all
items then request a total from seller BEFORE making payment. You can find the REQUEST TOTAL FROM SELLER button at the top of your basket. We will then send you a combined shipping eBay invoice to pay. This is NOT possible if you have already paid for any of the items you are ordering.
ITALY, RUSSIA AND OTHER PROBLEM DESTINATIONS
Customers
in Italy (and other problem destinations) please note that due to the
high number of orders that vanish and never arrive whilst in the hands
of the various postal services we will NOT send orders over £25
in total value (including postage cost) to problem destinations using
standard untracked airmail. If your items total more than £25.00 please
arrange to pay for tracked and signed shipping so that your order may be
shipped safely and securely. If the tracked shipping option is not
offered in the listing, please use the following listing to pay the
extra cost of this.
Tracked & Signed supplemental charge to Italy, Russia and other problem destinations.
Please
also note that orders sent to Italy and Russia may take MUCH longer
than eBay's estimate to be delivered and, whilst some orders do arrive
within a week or two, many orders sent to these countries are not
delivered for three or perhaps even four weeks! This is entirely outside
our control, as we ship within one working day and once your order is
in the hands of your country's Postal service, there is nothing we can
do to get it to you any faster.
Please DO NOT send
messages with the title "Item not received" as these open complaint
cases against us and damage our seller rating! Instead please use the
general "Other" heading to ask about your delivery if several weeks have
passed.
Lastly, please note that when eBay asks you "Did the
item arrive on or before" their estimated delivery date, it also damages
our seller rating if you answer "No", so bear in mind that we always
ship within two working days, so if you answer "No" because your local
postal service (especially in Italy!) has taken weeks to deliver, you
are punishing us, not them!
Thank you all for your kind
consideration of the above and remember that we will always do our very
best to sort out any problems or questions you may have related to your
order if you contact us using the "Contact Seller" and (if the choice is
given) "Other" ask a question of seller options.
We pride ourselves on our excellent customer services and this is reflected in our Top a Ebay Rated Seller status and the 10000's of positive feedbacks we have.
If after browsing through our huge array of items you cannot find what you are looking for contact us. We will always go out of our way to source the product you are looking for.
