I started playing guitar when plastic was the only material picks were made from. The tip of the plastic pick would break easily. Then other materials came about that ended the nuisance of broken picks. When I first saw the Gatorgrip picks, being that my nickname is Gator and these picks have gator on them, It was like having a personalized pick. What else could I do? They have a great grip for heavy strumming and fast alternate picking, they do not break. Eventually the tip will wear and become rounded but nothing lasts forever, right? I do get quite a bit of wear out of them and they're no expensive. I haven't switched in over 20 years.

I like these and I like Ultex. I had been using Tortex for the longest time. I was wondering if different picks would change how my acoustic sounded. These picks brought a brightness to my Epiphone that Tortex were not (I was not playing on old strings and I replace strings regularly).After some experimentation I found that I like .71 for guitar and .96 for bass. The higher thicknesses are fun for a different feel too.I found that the denser material of these, and Ultex alike, were more pleasing feel and sound wise. I switch between them depending on which I like more at the moment. I have even been buying extra packs to share with my friends and they have been converting to these too.

I got the .71 Dunlop Gator Grips at my local GC because I needed something thicker than the .5mm Planet Wave delrins that I have been using, which I love but burn through quickly because of the way I attack the strings. But, I still needed a pick that would give me the definition for lead playing. I play mostly old-school heavy/thrash/death metal like Iron Maiden, early Metallica, and Cannibal Corpse, and the 71mm's hold up with all the double-picked speed riffs that I do. They've been doing a good job so far!

Picks are one of those individual choices and everyone will have their particular favorite that works best for them and their playing style. I've been using these .58mm picks for several years now and these are by far my favorites. I've tried a ton of other pick types, thicknesses, styles and materials. Some standard designs to more gimmicky ones. Some of them do certain things very well, but none of them seem to be as versatile as these and these work the best for me. They have the right amount of flexibility and control so I don't have to change picks when I switch from rhythm in one song to lead in another song. I am a bit aggressive in my playing style, playing both rhythm and lead across multiple music genres (surf (think Dick Dale), blues, country and rock) ...

I am a bit aggressive in my playing style, playing both rhythm and lead across multiple music genres (surf (think Dick Dale), blues, country and rock) using both 9 and 10 gauge strings, and I can go through 2 picks in a playing session pretty easy, but that's really not bad news. These picks can be re-profiled by simply rubbing them on a piece of denim, cardboard, rug, etc. so you can get some extended use from them. These also have some sort of very light coating/texture on them that helps you keep your grip. I rarely drop one (but I always keep another on handy just in case). If I were a jazz player or just played lead guitar I'm not sure that these would be my first choice as there are other picks that excel in those areas, but for an all around workhorse pick these work good for me.
It's surprising how much a pick affects the sound and feel of a guitar or other fretted instrument. I like this one a lot. The textured surface helps keep the pick from slipping from my fingers. The texture also improves control and tone, acting a bit like a violin bow, holding onto the string, instead of sliding off the way a shinier pick does. I like the thickness, too; not too stiff, not too floppy. It's all a matter of personal preference, but these work well for me.
Great for recording acoustic guitars. This pick is relatively quiet on the strings, reducing pick click, and allowing a more natural string ring.Pretty much the same on electric guitars. If you like the machine gun rat-tat-tat, this may not be the pick for you. This pick will give you a super nice violin bow, scrape tone, especially at high gain, and is a must for Wah junkies.The right guage. If you're not a mediumish pick feel player, the Gator 71 mm is worth getting use to, it really seems to be a sweet spot in the Gator Grip line.
I'm a bass player who doesn't use picks very often. But when I do, these are my go to picks! They are so reliable and easy to use. The thickness of the material works very well on your strings. I'll always recommend Dunlop picks!
After hearing what people say about them wearing down along the edges and their grips wearing off, I strayed away from them, until I bought a Dunlop variety pack that contained a .96 and a 1.14mm Gator Grip. They are among the best picks I've ever owned. They come in handy on guitar when you're doing heavy riffing or soloing, but I think they shine brightest on the bass. They're pretty stiff, so they dont add any clicking or string noise to your sound, but still have that characteristic pick sound that bassists want. I'm gonna order more of them, probably some 1.5 and 2mm's.One more thing you should know, the texture in the picture is really messed up. They aren't that powdery and scratched up.They do exactly what they're supposed to--stay in your fingers when ...

They aren't that powdery and scratched up.They do exactly what they're supposed to--stay in your fingers when you play. And I really prefer this grip surface over the Max-Grip because it's more subtle. It feels like you're holding a normal pick. And I really dig the rounded edge, which I think is important for good tone. I don't use heavier-gauge Tortex picks in my playing because of that clicking sound they make with their squared edges. Another thing I like about the Gator Grips is that they are smaller than the Tortex, about the same size as the Delrin 500's. I like this size because it's a nice combination of larger picks like Max-Grips and smaller picks like Big Stubby's.I haven't experienced any wearing down yet, but I hear that's what happens to them so I'm expecting some. But that's fine, considering you get a dozen in a pack. Other than that, they are built sturdy and are extremely consistent. And the label doesn't wear off after 3 seconds of playing like the Tortex's does (that drives me crazy by the way).This price for a dozen? I can't argue with that. For me, a dozen will last a really long time.
I've been using the 1.5mm ones since 2006 or so. These last months if not years assuming you don't lose them and depending on how serious you are. Since they are such thick picks you get this extra bit of volume and no floppiness or that annoying click to distract you from playing. I use these for leads, soloing and rhythm on darker sounding guitars. They get rid of a bit of the highs and there is a bit of compression but that is what the dunlop aluminum picks or steel strings or dare I say the john petrucci set is for (im not a dream theater fan).I've been recommending these to other guitarists for years. Some have switched to them. Others joke and call the green gators rocks. But we're not talking 100$ or 1000$ territory, check them out.
