Does the size/thickness of your guitar pick have an affect on your tone? And if so, in what way?
I was genuinely keen to figure this out for myself! I hope you learn something or at least enjoy this video! Cheers!

Blues always be my go to. Orange also really nice

[@sleevelessace]

same the blue 1.0s and the orange .60s are my go to and i play a les paul but i use the orange for strumming ofcourse and blue for lead parts and picking notes... i also really love Fender Heavys , i have mediums to but id way rather use the orange tortex then a fender medium... but i really love the heavy fender picks, but theyre really glossy, the tortex have such a amaing grip on them

[@samwalsh2808]

Going from the red back to purple, massive difference I noticed on the acoustic guitar; the sound with the purple pick; i usually like that more encompassing punch, but yeah i kind of like the yellow, green and spesh the orange mostly.

[@BenNeal]

Agreed!

I've always used standard shape (forget the designation) Fender medium picks. I ordered a strap that came with a couple of picks about the same thickness but had a much sharper point and that point shape sounds VASTLY different than the more rounded Fenders.

[@BenNeal]

Yes! I use a Tortex Flow pick most of the time. I love the sharper point on it!

The .50s sound sweet

[@GTA_500]

For me the thickness of the guitar pick plays a big part in how comfortable it is to play but maybe if the guitar pick was made out of steel it would sound different.

[@sleepy4x]

For me the blue sounded best on the electric and the yellow on acoustic. I used the yellow a long time for everything, but nowadays I am going towards the blue on electric, because they give me more control. But I like the herco flex 75 too for electric. So I change from time to time.

[@I..cast..fireball]

I feel similarly, but I settled on green (right between those two) for everything.

[@Icantthinkofanything007]

I only play Dumble picks made out of recycled Klon Centaurs and unicorn tears!! 🤣🤣

[@BenNeal]

😂😂😂

[@BenNeal]

It really is the only way to get good tone...

[@IJR_13]

What size pick do I use to play like Banda and corrido

[@brandonmartinez4567]

.50 or 60
