    Also, different pick materials make a lot of difference as well. Not only in sound, but feel. There is Nylon, Tortex, Ultex, Celluloid, Acrylic, Metal and so on. Each material has different qualities depending on the thickness used. Thicker picks tend to deliver a deeper, louder tone. Thinner picks deliver less volume, less control, however easier to learn with in my opinion. Guitar is a very personal experience. Experiment to try to find what works for you. Most stores sell a variety pack of picks. A lot of folks like the Dunlop Primetone picks. I’m personally not a fan. I’ve personally settled on Blue Chip picks. 1.0mm, .89mm. These seem to be the only picks that don’t spin or move in my hand like other picks. Seems to deliver nice tone as well.
