    Hi Stevie. If you have an assortment of picks, try the thinnest one first (.5mm – .7mm). It will be the most forgiving and provide a smoother glide over the strings. Once you get the hang of strumming, you can move up to a thicker pick. Why move up if you get the hang of a thin pick? Well, does a painter only use one color to create a portrait? A thicker pick will product a different tone. In general, thin picks produce bright clicky tones. Thicker picks produce mellower tones. But that is for further down your journey. Enjoy!
