I use Dunlop purple for electric and acoustic both. If you're are going to be playing drum circle full chord strumming shit for the amusement of stoner philosophers then a really flimsy pick works well.
Mostly I don't bother to pick up my acoustic unless I'm going to work on finger picking or flamenco strumming, etc...

My first few months of playing long ago....I simply used the picks I was given an handfull of when purchasing the guitar.....they were all thick and rigid as nickles......very soon after I was on E-Bay and bought 2 Mick Mars picks...about 3 dollars each.
When they came...they were super thin.....very flexable....I tried one out and everything changed for me....
They didnt last long....cracked....so I found some Nylon Jim Dunlops that were as thin and flexable.......it's all I use now.....they last a really long time.

I try to use .75mm Jim Dunlop Nylon ones. They seem to work pretty well for the old Slayer stuff I'm trying to learn. You guys ever hear Yngwie Malmsteen? He uses imprinted 1.5mm Jim Dunlops which are probably worn to hell or smoking after his solos. Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield, and Dave Mustaine all seem to use the green .88mm Dunlop Tortex ones. Maybe I should change the thickness I use....

I use Jim Dunlop 2mm's (the little clear purple ones). I can't play with anything under 1.5mm unless i'm playing acoustic.
