I've always prefered the 50s.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

not anymore, he's been using some black ones. Could be the same kind and size though, but they're black or some dark color.

I just bought some of these today. I'm diggin em so far. They're quite a bit brighter than the Tortex, which I like, but seem like they'll be a lot more durable than celluloids.

i like to use the blackline tiki taboo http://www.jimdunlop.com/products/picks ... index.html as well as the orange tortex.

i use the 0.6mm but for some reason they feel lighter than the tortex orange and not as light as the tortex reds.

just started using the ultex. they feel glassy and definitely harder to keep in your hand - slippery buggers. i like to use em for heavy strumming on my 110.
