More Jazz III matters....

Or just use them for awhile and you will get used to the grip. The red ones used to slip after I held them for awhile but eventually I got used to it and never have problems anymore.

I like the grip of the black ones myself.

Re: More Jazz III matters....

when I started trying the Jazz III, I played the blacks..one day I got a pack of black and a pack of reds and the reds won out for some reason, never bothered to figure why...just felt like a pick for me. I still use regular picks like the Dunlap purple tortex and a pick called meta carbonate by Pickboy.. 1.0 mm heavy, nice picks-very durable. They have some cool styles & graphics.. I highly recommend them. http://www.guitarpick.org/PickBoy.htm

Re: More Jazz III matters....

love jazz III's. been using them as long as i can remember.

I've also been fiddling around with the dunlop 3.0mm stubbys

Re: More Jazz III matters....

I used to have some kind of chemical reaction to the stubbies. I loved the way they felt but would always slip from my hands. I went to the Dunlop black Jazzr's but one day found an old Fender medium Jazz pick in my stash and started using it out of curiosity. I found that with this pick I had more control of articulation and dynamics so thats what I use now.

Grip can always be altered. Slash a few marks into the gripping area with a hobby knife. You'll probably end up roughing up the raised lettering that's on the Jazz IIIs and get better grip.

or if you care, you can drill a hole through it so that when you grip the pick your thumb and finger are actually touching. i got this idea from those new fangled picks that they sell in the back of guitar magazines.

Re: More Jazz III matters....

you know what SCREW the stubby lil' bastards..

John had me playing those damn things for a while..

Only thing is...what if you don't have a stubby around ...learn how to palm mute and play with a standard size pick...because that is what you will be barrowing , finding or playing with in a pinch when you can't find your stubby. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

that's what I think..unless you you have an endless supply of them...

you should be able to grab ANY pick...and play if you had to..IMO

Re: More Jazz III matters....

Oh yeah, if you HAD to, no doubt, but they're cheap enough that you can have an endless supply of them. Put a few in your wallet, in your pocket, hell if you got an earring, stick one on a wire hoop [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: More Jazz III matters....

you have to order those around here ...alot of stores never stock them...and when they do...they're always outta stock...

So I make do of what I have plenty of...and I have an endless supply of cheap Fender heavys...so that's what I use..and various heavy Dunlap...I can't even find a stubby around here...and I had quite a few of them...

I buy picks by the dozen, thinking I'll get through the year with them easily. A month later they're all gone!

I go buy another dozen, because I can't find my other ones, I come home with the new picks and bam the old fuggers start showing up everywhere, miraclelasly! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: More Jazz III matters....

i love it when you drop a pick directly on the floor below you, and you look down and it magically bounced like 7 feet away, and rolled under the couch [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Couches and beds are magic pick magnets!

And if somehow you don't find any there, just look under your halfstack... or have a look into the washing machine. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
