I’m looking for good grip picks for like metal music, I know all picks can be used for metal but I usually use like a smaller condensed shape for my picks, I ordered .88mm torex triangle Dunlop picks are those any good? I know they’re the kind Kerry king used and that’s who I’m trying to be like

I use the Dunlop john Petrucci picks and those are pretty solid, good for chugs and whatnot

jazz III 3s are some of the most common picks used for metal and shred they are 1.38mm and relatively small but comfortable

Can recommend jazz 3s as well

#

If they are too small you can try jazz 3 XL

#

Tried and tested shape

I recommend to buy different picks:
Jazz 3 1.38 (red one)
Tortex TIII 0.88 (0.73 bend itself in the middle, all the series have sh1tty ink, but sharp point is nuts)
Regular pick about 1mm

If Kerry king used them they must’ve been good right?

Funny thing, I have those same picks, I don't like them very much but they work, plus they have 3 tips so if one or two sides break you still have another side to pick

I alternate between Dunlop flow .88 and jazz 3 picks. I’m better at pinch harmonics and tremelo picking single notes on jazz 3’s. They’re good for fast stuff for metal

Let me know how they are 👍 they may take a few minutes to get used to because they’re small

Honestly I really like Kirk Hammetts. They're really cool looking and they're amazing for metal. I've been using them for a while now and they're amazing
