Yeah?
Don't think I will ever change from my 0.94mm Clayton Ultem triangle.
Yeah that's right Vic! I use super hard picks and 8-38 strings!

8-38 Strings Eeeeeeeeek!
I would bust those strings and spend more time re-stringing than playing. Do you like the way that they sound Andrew? For me I think that they sound thin in addition to frequent breakage of the high "e" and "b"

I think that both of these picks are great alternate picking and muted picking

I use Dunlop 1mm. They are also easy to get and don't slip.
I still can't believe the strings you use Andrew. Don't you like tone?

The composite material is magic. I have always had issues with control with picks.. as soon I used the wegen it was a huge break through for me. Dont know how to describe it. I was using dunlops but the wegen is like its part of me.

I'll have to see if I can suss one out.
Oh man Andrew, I seriously cringe at the thought of that string gauge. There's nothing there, I don't know how you do it.

Yes. Now ALL BOW DOWN to the Holy Trinity of Yngwie, MAB and myself!
Wait......what? You mean those guys can actually play?! Oh dang!
Back to your regular programming. Nothing to see here!
What is the material they're made of? Regular plastic like a classic tortoise shell, rubbery like a Jazz III, nylon like a Tortex or really hard like a Ultex?

Mine are thick but they do thin.you can email him and get what you want size wise.
For me I like thick so its cool. Also I hardly ever plug in so it helps with volume.

I only use these. LOVE them. Best picks I've ever used & they look killer to boot.
Used them for about 20 years. Always deliver the goods.
