My favorite pick for a long time. Tried some more expensive ones based on discussion here. But, always come back to the thin.

I just keep coming back to Dunlop gels and I’ve tried about everything. I seem to be the only one so I hope they don’t quit making them.

After a AGF fueled pick journey through various materials including casein I circled back to celluloid. I go back and fourth between a standard teardrop shape in extra heavy and some very heavy Golden Gate picks that are rounded. I have Fender, Dunlop, and recently tried Pick Boy from Japan. I can also get along with Delrin and Nylon.

I have some JB celluloids that I play. The new guitar, a 00 cutaway in all koa really likes those picks. Theyre warm and smooth on that guitar. My D18 sounds best with Blue Chips. I played Red Bears for years, and now dont like them much. I hear a chirp with them that I wasnt aware of for years....

I have 3-4 Vespel (Bluechip and CL), wood, and all kinds of others, including Walrus tusk. Too many.
But...I use Celluloid mostly: Fender .52 thickness which is between a thin and medium (I sand down a medium). Although I'm getting tired of sanding, and recently found that Pickboy carries .50 celluloid, so I'm going to try those. I also sometimes use a Herco thumbpick, which is also celluloid but the material seems very different - more durable, and shiny. Almost like they put some type of finish on the celluloid.

I've not used my celluloid Fender picks since I switched to Dunlop Primetones.
I get the same sound from the Primetones and they lasts way, way longer than the Fenders (like almost infinitely longer). I wouldn't mind using celluloid picks at all; they're just more expensive than the Primetones due to their short lifespan. |

Fender celluloid - typical medium, but heavy fine too. To this day I love all of the different colors they offer, too. Some things never change.

Fender 351 Extra Heavy celluloid, always and on everything (guitar, banjo, mandolin, ukulele) since 1991. And before that, it was the same shape in Heavy. The only time I have used anything else is when I can’t find them retail in my preferred gauge. Because of that, I went through a brief period using the red Dunlop Jazz III, but I quickly got back to my usual picks.
