Thread Name: what a difference a pick makes
Subject: RE: what a difference a pick makes
I pretty much have fallen head over heels for the Fred Kelly Bumblebee in a medium or light gauge. I do a lot of fingerstyle mixed with percussive strums and this works as well as anything I have tried. I used to use Herco's but the Kellys are amazing.

When I am playing Irish Bouzouki or flat picking, I also use the Herdim 3 sided. Very fast, very clean, easier on the fingers when playing a high tension instrument. Try using too heavy a pick on a 3 tune AA-BB-AB Reel set that lasts for +/- 10 minutes. It will get your attention. The Herdims are very easy on the fingers in these circumstances.
