For acoustic,
Dunlop Ultex .60
Dunlop Ultex 1.0
Dunlop Tortex .88 (Regular size)

For acoustic or electric:
Dunlop Tortex .88 (Pointy Jazz size)
Dunlop Ultex Jazz III

In case of emergency:
Dunlop Match Pick

Iba't ibang picks ang gamit ko, kasi iba-iba tonal character nila at feel. Though mostly I stick to Jazz-sized picks. Mas maganda control ko sa kanila e.

I Love that Stubby 3.0mm, but since i couldn't get em here anymore i decided to order a pack of those Dadi 3.0mm picks.

Someone gave me a Brossard 'The Bone' pick a while ago and never really tried it until lately. It's very thick and convexed yet feels very comfortable. Easy to use for single note picking, but I'm still having difficulty getting a nice even staccato.

Also, I've been using a medium National thumbpick a lot lately. I like the fact that the pick stays in place while the rest of my fingers do fingerstyle picking (not that I'm good at it).

jazz III hindi tumatama sa pickguard hehe

screamingguitars · « **Reply #42 on:** April 25, 2009, 10:01:02 PM »

If only the Jazz III is thicker in the middle portion then i would probably be indulging on it.

For Acoustic Strumming, I prefer using thinner picks. I usually use my Right Pointer finger's nail as a pick, it does well.

screamingguitars · « **Reply #48 on:** April 26, 2009, 07:45:09 AM »

Oh yes, growing nails for that bright sounding pluck is common too specially among chord melody players, hard to maintain those precious nails though.

wowgie · « **Reply #49 on:** April 26, 2009, 08:52:22 AM »

Hehe... any picks will do. But for strumming like shuffling i prefer thinner pick or even no picks at all. for soloing syempre thicker picks. Hindi kasi ako familiar sa mga measure ng picks eh.
