I have been playing (just for fun) for about 15 years. During which I have tried countless different types of guitar picks.

Recently I’m gravitating towards really thick picks, like the well-known Jazz III or Big Stubby 3.0mm. I’ve noticed I can play fast alternate picking and triplets much easier with these.

What types of picks do you use, and why?

    Yeah I also love the feel of Tortex picks. It’s what I started with when I first picked up guitar. But once I got into technical fast playing (thrash metal etc) I noticed thick picks have a big advantage in playability. I still don’t really understand why but it works for me.
