Gypsy jazz one
The Dunlop 207s - good, and I don't regret getting them, although kind of unnecessary for me to have them. The Primetone 5 mm are basically no good at all for me, surprisingly bad in fact, so I'll give them away maybe. I did try a bit of filing and re-profiling on one, which helped, although still not great.
PM if interested
It's a shame that the retailer is out of jazztone 208s. About 5 years ago, I went on a pick journey and must've tried about 50 types from Dunlop, Clayton, V-picks, Brossard picks, gravity picks, dava picks and a few other brands. In the end, I settled on the jazztone 208s.
I bought a bag of 36 and have been using them ever since.

In fact, to change my mind to what I said before, for jazz playing, I really love the 207 - I seem to be liking that one more and more as I get used to it. I do think the 208 would be a very interesting one to try, and I might - but probably for me, the 207 is maybe the better choice, so perhaps lucky that they didn't have the 208 in stock, or I'd never have given the 207 a go.
The Flow is great also - and as an all-round versatile choice perhaps better. A bit brighter tone certainly, which is good for pop/funk etc.

small one for electric (between a jazz III and jazz + size) and his "bluegrass" model for acoustic.
Wegen on acoustic.
i’ve tried the flow (Petrucci and Andy James) and like the feel but I hear an odd click/plink on string attack.
Feedback
A friend of mine who plays jazz guitar gave me a 3mm to try about 20 years ago and I was hooked, haven't used anything else since.
never falls from the hand or gets caught between strings when sweeping back or forward and superb for shred tremolo picking
I can't get comfortable with anything else now
have been using them for about 5 years
But, I find I can actually play a little faster/cleaner with a standard snot orange/yellow Ultex Jazz III or a V-pick.
I dont like much flex generally (except for cowboy chord strumming on acoustic but then i prefer fingertips for that) as I feel like you dont really get the physical connection to the string that lets you alternate pick quickly.
