I use JF fingerpicks, but they are hard to find anymore. There is a design flaw with the diamond cut outs that over time the bands will weaken and snap. I also like Hoffmeyer picks, which are modeled after the original nationals. Personally I don't like any fingerpicks with a wide band like Dunlops. I used to use the blue herco thumbpicks, but I switched to the red delrin thumbpicks because they don't loosen up as bad as they warm up. Don't have to switch them out mid set.

If you go to the "Search" function above, and type "fingerpicks" or "thumbpicks" into the "Google Custom Search" field on the left side of the search page, you will find many, many threads on fingerpicks and thumbpicks. Very Happy
