The right pick for the right song.

[AcornHouse]

I don't know where it came from. Probably at the bottom of a used amp or in the case of a guitar I bought. Not something I’d normally use, medium celluloids are my go to for acoustics.
But when you get the right song that needs a super light attack, it's just the thing.

Look for it in an upcoming video. The green will be hard to miss.

I bought several Guild picks from a fellow LTG member - both medium and heavy. Agree on "what song you play."

Wait, there are other plectrum sizes than 2.0?

 

[PreacherBob]

Absolutely. Thin plastic bread ties. I used to keep some in my pocket. I can lose picks a day after I buy them, but those bread ties seem to hang around forever.

"The right pick for the right song."

Makes me think of Dr. John.

I was once told that the thinner the pick the more you hear it and the thicker the pick, the more you hear the strings.

I've used matchbook covers to strum but as my playing improved to some degree I've gone from thin picks to med as well.

I used to play exclusively with 2mm picks and now I play almost exclusively with 0.5mm picks because I like the sharp attack.

I have used nothing but Moshay medium thickness, medium size picks for the last 50 years or so. They come in three sizes and four thicknesses. I adjust the position of the pick in my fingers and the grip pressure depending on the sound I want. They are unbreakable, I have never worn one out and the hole in the center makes them easy to hold onto.
