Minor case of GAS

I’ve had my eye on these two wants-not-needs for a while and finally gave in and treated myself. :wink:

I do like the Jazz 3 picks so far, I was surprised how small they are but I seem to be more in control of the pick than with my usual orange tortex ones.

I haven’t tried any of the fancy features of the tuner yet but am having fun comparing it to my usual tuner side by side. They don’t always agree lol.

I’ve just this week ended an eight month period of using Jazz iii exclusively. I find it hard to switch between picks, so I use the same picks for acoustic, electric, lead and rhythm. I really liked the Jazz iii, but I just can’t maintain enough control with fast constant 16th note strumming (it doesn’t help that I’m a leftie who plays right-handed, so pick manipulation is with my non-dominant hand). So for now I’m back on something a bit bigger and thinner in my eternal search for the perfect ‘do it all’ pick.

The Jazz III XL are slightly bigger; I find them the perfect pick, lead, rhythm, whatever,
; and have been using them exclusively now for a couple of years.
The nylon ones are the best for me - 1.38mm
They call 'em the “Black Stiffos”…:rofl:

Cheers, Shane

I do love my regular jazz iii - I think they are 1.4mm but some of the stuff I’m doing right now is borderline funk strumming and I just can’t hang on to them after 3 minutes of that :slight_smile:
Going back to a ‘normal’ pick after the jazz iii felt like running in clown shoes, but after a couple of days I was pretty much back to where I was.

The good thing ( for me) about the Jazz III XL is its size falls between a standard Jazz III and a normal pick.
