Slash
Signature Pick
DUNLOP TORTEX® STANDARD
Slash's pick of choice – the classic purple Tortex that has shaped his legendary tone for decades.
Why This Pick?
Slash favors the 1.14mm Tortex for its perfect balance between stiffness and control. The heavy gauge gives him the articulation needed for intricate blues-influenced leads while providing enough body for heavy rhythm work. The matte Tortex texture offers excellent grip, even during sweaty stage performances.
