Fender 351 Dura-Tone Picks OLY

These Fender Dura-Tone picks are high quality, and have a vintage look and sound. Comparing the Olympic White .71 to a Tortex .73 (as a standard reference), the stiffness and feel is approximately the same, however the Dura-tone has a different sound: it's a bit of a warmer sound with slightly different mix of overtones. On the other hand, the Dura-tone makes a brighter. "click" sound on the strings. The material of the Dura-tone feels a little bit harder than Tortex. The grip is pretty similar.

At first I was not particularly impressed... but thee picks grew on me over time. Now I really like them.
