Members Meowy Posted December 29, 2012 Members Share Posted December 29, 2012 I wanted to share a pick that I just discovered and really like: Dunlop Herco Gold Flex 50s.I had mainly been using Tortex 50s (red) or grey Dunlop nylon 60s for acoustic and Tortex 60s (orange) for electric, but these may be my new go-to for both.The sound virtually identical to the red Tortex but I feel less string resistance on the edge and the grip / tactile feel is definitely much better.I found these among items under the Herco name while shopping for a case humidifier. From what I can tell these are an old brand that Dunlop added as a sub-line. They also make a .75mm if you prefer a little thicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Muddslide Posted December 29, 2012 Members Share Posted December 29, 2012 That's the pick I've been using for 20 years (although I've moved more towards the silver Flex 75s the past several years.) I still use various other picks, and change up now and then, but these are my mainstays. They never break or split, at least none of mine ever has.

Members RUExp? Posted December 30, 2012 Members Share Posted December 30, 2012 I've been a fan of nylon picks from early on. I have an older Flex 75 that I bought in the '80s and it's different than the newer ones. It's light gray and stiffer. Jimmy Page uses the Flex 75s I've read.
