A sharper sound, from roots blues to electric rock
The Dunlop 220 is a standard designed to get straight to the point: a "universal" length and thickness that suit most guitars and playing styles. Where glass remains soft, chromed metal provides a sharper attack and pronounced brightness: perfect for highlighting slide lines on an acoustic, or for asserting a more biting character on an electric. An excellent choice for blues, rock, country... and all sonic experiments.

Good quality, but it's always hard to find the right size (I have long, thin fingers, not a pianist but a violinist).
