 Easy-flo flux is a good all-round one for silver soldering.  
 
I use it with both Easy-flo solder and also G6 silver solder which is a much higher temperature silver solder which is ideal for soldering pad cups to cup arms (before soldering them to key barrels or key rods), adjusting screw pips, right-angle bends, touchpieces to touchpiece arms and other parts that you don't want to fall off when soldering other parts on afterwards or in close proximity.
