I have a Fender 351, Dunlop Ultex Jazz, Red Jazz III and a Black Jazz III. The one that gives the best tone and complexity for me is the Fender pick especially when using low to mid gain. The downside is because of the flex and size its hard to do 16/32 notes. Next is the Ultex Jazz but I don't like the pick noise. I can make the Fender pick sound like the Ultex but its not as fast. Red Jazz III's are super fast that's why shredders love them but IMO they don't sound good w/ low gain, with uber high gain it's perfect since the distortion has covered up the actual sound of the guitar anyway. Black Jazz III I'm not too fond of.

Most reliable source of real Jazz III's is SJC, in Pasig. It's along Julia Vargas Avenue. Near the Elorde Boxing Gym.

   Nasa States ako bro, every major music store carries em. My ideal pick would be the one that has the tonal variation of a Fender pick but the speed of the Jazz III. The search continues I guess.

Have you tried using those jim dunlop stubby picks? Since you like thick pics perhaps the said picks would be interesting to you as well.. 8-)

  Baliktad bro. I like the sound of a regular Fender 351 pick which is a fairly thin pick. I find that the thicker the pick the duller the sound and less tonal variation but it does offers speed. I've been hearing about V-picks, I might give em a try.
