Re: A question for mandolin players who also flatpick guitar
Have gotten used to using a medium/heavy plastic thumb pick on both instead of any other kind of pick. No longer dropping them either in the sound hole or on the floor (sure, it never happened to you!). If you keep your index finger and thumb in contact just like you would with a flat pick, you still use the same stroke (at least I do). Yeah, I'm a bit nontraditional.

Current Stable: Two Tenor Guitars (Martin 515, Blueridge BR-40T), a Tenor Banjo (Deering GoodTime 17-Fret), a Mandolin (Burgess #7). two Banjo-Ukes and five Ukuleles..
The inventory is always in some flux, but that's part of the fun.
