new picks

when you use a brand new pick does anyone find they here a scrapping sound against the strings until it wears down a bit...after a good hour?

I like picks better when they are brand new. They have a powder or somethin on them. I dunno I use the red Dunlop Tortex though, if that makes a difference.

I have the DMB lgo on mine. Just call Dunlop and you can get some. Not really worth it unless you buy 5 or so bags. shipping is a bitch.
