Sound and Performance

The Jazz III Stiffo produces a bright, articulate tone with a sharp, defined attack and an immediate, clean string release. The extra-stiff Stiffo nylon eliminates all pick flex, giving you a direct connection between your stroke and the string — every movement translates instantly into sound with no energy lost to pick bend. The small jazz shape keeps the tip close to your fingers for pinpoint accuracy, making it ideal for fast lead playing, sweep picking, alternate picking, and intricate jazz phrasing.

Stiffo vs Standard Jazz III Nylon

The standard Jazz III Nylon has a slight flex that some players prefer for its warmer, more rounded tone. The Jazz III Stiffo removes that flex entirely, resulting in a brighter, more cutting tone with a faster, more precise response. For high-speed lead players and technically demanding styles, the Stiffo material provides a level of control and immediacy that the standard nylon version cannot match. Both are exceptional picks — the choice comes down to whether you prefer warmth and slight give, or brightness and zero flex.

Build Quality

Dunlop manufactures the Jazz III Stiffo to the same exacting standards as all of its professional performance picks. The Stiffo nylon material is consistent in thickness and stiffness across every pick, ensuring a predictable, reliable feel every time you play. The pick maintains its shape and performance characteristics over extended use, making it a dependable everyday choice for serious players.

Ideal For

• Lead guitarists who need maximum speed, precision, and a direct, immediate pick response
• Rock, metal, and fusion players who prefer a stiff pick for fast alternate picking and sweep picking
• Jazz guitarists who want the clean articulation of the Jazz III shape with a brighter, more cutting tone
• Players who already use the Jazz III Nylon and want to experience the Stiffo upgrade

Why It Stands Out

The Jazz III is already one of the most respected picks in the world. The Stiffo version takes it further by removing all flex for a pick that responds with absolute immediacy and precision. For technically demanding players who need every advantage they can get, the Jazz III Stiffo is the pick that delivers. Now available at Prathmesh Music.
