    My favorite pick is a 2.0mm made out of Snakewood that I have put a speed bevel on. The best pick for the money is the Dunlop Ultex 2.0mm. I do like thick picks. I find the thick pick offers more dynamic possiblities without the slapping plastic sound of the thinner pick on the strings. With a thin pick when I dig in it gets more string to pick sound but not much more volume for the additional effort. When I first started I favored a very thin pick because they felt more forgiving…over time the desire to control sound become greater than my need for a forgiving pick. With these Thicker picks I can get a wood tone to ring out without any string noise. It is a cool effect.
