Mick Thomson Max-Grip Jazz III Carbon Fiber Pick & Flow Standard

[@Merjia]

I could listen to Mick talk gear all damn day.

[@chiefmachine24]

Never thought I'd hear the term "bullet proof" to describe a pick

[@scottharris4053]

Do you play metal with a pick?

[@saarangnarayan123]

From 1.5 to 0.88 is a huge drop! It seems to be the thing to do now. Even the djent bois are dropping pick gauge.

[@FachryZulfikar]

the ultex material is really stiff, and Flow used ultex material. I used to play with Jazz III ultex and then move to Flow .88 mm. Flow feels better for me, it glides through the strings really easy.

[@ashen11x22]

Well Dave Mustaine has been playing a .73 mm Tortex on a .052 low E in standard tuning on a 25.5 scale since the early 80’s

[@jensloetzsch]

It's not a thing ,,to do now ''. Play with different pick gauges and see what feels the best for YOU, not for other people ;) I tried different picks over many many years and the Ultex Material is still the best for me, nowadays I use Flow Picks with gauges from 1.5-2.0mm.

[@khgear7160]

YES. Ultex Flow .88 gang rise! haha. Those are really good haha

[@TheSpineSplitter1990]

I've been using a soldering iron to burn in tiny holes for grip on my jazz iii picks and it has worked perfectly for years.

[@lo3572]

I went to 0.73 Flow & Primetone Jazz III XL ever since I saw Paul Gilbert was shredding with a 0.6 tortex

[@robvic39]

The yellow Ultex 1.38 are my go to for the last few years. Nothing beats em.

[@carpenoctem775]

Very technical and analytical. But those raiders pics are sick!

[@dominicwainaina3960]

I've been using the jazz III Max Grip with carbon fiber and I can say that they barely flex and it glides nicely across the strings

[@egorillad]

Do I hint a new Mick signature pick line?

[@paradigmshiftz7]

I hope so

[@Locoandchooch]

I keep bumping up to heavier picks. Must be getting old.🤘🏼

[@XMetalChefX]

I love how Mick wont have a signature pick cause he just uses the regular stuff lol.

[@luisfgd100]

I love the jazz 3, Kirk Hammett signature. I want that picks of tortex.

[@_pant0m]

1mm is the sweetest spot not dark not to bright

[@charleschi843]

I love how Mick never once said anything about my dad's calf muscles.

[@wmxx2000]

Hm, I'll have to try these

[@MichaelD8393]

I know the Max Grip Jazz IIIs very well, so I'll definitely be trying Mick's Flows now.

[@fledabyss3557]

i use any thickness from 1.00-2.00mm

[@Rykkkrykkk]

I also like a big low-end that cracks my ribs.

[@mustangv1258]

He really know what he wants, so mick use flow 1.0 apparently? so i think its that blue colour pick, flow pick really help with picking cause it gives that snappy attack

[@BcBaxley]

I always go back to the tortex standard

[@NathanielBTM]

I like using between 1mm to 1.50mm

[@MikeMCT]

Which material is he using with the Dunlop flow? He doesn’t say but at least in the quick shot it doesn’t look like either the normal Ultex material or the tortex material.

[@tysonrecords666]

Carbon fiber is just refering to the color? Or it has carbon in it?

[@Rangure02]

Yeah there's a version of Jazz III max grip made entirely from carbon fiber

[@J.Strantz]

I strongly dislike picks that bend. 1.14 is just right. Mick is such a nerd, he knows what year they planted the trees that produced the wood to make all his guitars. Lol.

[@NKN82]

Depends on string cages and guitar tuning. 1.14 great for thick strings. For 9s or 10s 0,73-0.88 is enough.

[@J.Strantz]

Been using 11s for years. So that actually makes sense. Lol. 😁

[@vlaklmgrv551]

Where are i can buy this pik's ?

[@StarDarkAshes]

I almost like the Flow Picks. But for small hands it's too small. I love the thickness and other parts but if you have stubby fingers you need a longer pick so you don't have to move your hand as much to reach more strings. PLEASE make Flow picks that are larger so there's more to grab onto.

[@jennyk9601]

Flow Jumbo or Dunlop 208 is what you’re looking for. Both however are at least 2mm thick

[@anagoncalves9685]

Alguém brasileiro???
