ok so you may think its a little sad or strange that im writing a review on plecs, but as a guitarist i have tried loads of different models, styles, thickness' and makes of plectrum. But i can honestly say nothing compares to Jim Dunlop NYLON plectrums, the series contains all different thinkness' of plecs for different purposes, it's completly up to you as to what you use each for, however heres what i would reccomend: 38mm- Strumming 46mm- General Strumming+light picking 60mm- Strumming, Picking-Multi Purpose (personal favourite) 73mm- Strumming+Picking-Multi Purpose 88mm- Strumming+Picking 100mm-Picking (Possibly strumming)
You can pick any of these up for around £0.30-£1.00 from pretty much any local music shop, if not they should be shot, and the great thing about these plectrums is how flexable the series is, you can always find the right plec for the purpose. They also have a sort of cerated grip on them just to give that extra hold and comfort, this can bbe very usefull when on stage and getting a little nervous, because as strange as it sounds you sweat, and the grip gives you that little exrta hold you need so you dont slip and mess up everything. A***** Hope this has helped :)

I agree completely! I have used these plecs all my (short) guitaring life and, having bought others for attractiveness, these come out on top. Congrats Jim Dunlop & congrats Markb for that rather handy 'guide' as well!
