and break all your fucking strings unless you're using heavy gauge
Luis Gray
No one has ever actually had this problem
Don't be so heavy handed
Alexander Baker
Used to play with 2mm picks, but for whatever reason started using 1mm ones once I needed to use heavier gauge strings. Feels pretty good to be honest, a little bit less bulky while comfortable for lead parts.

i used to think this. keep playing and it will seem preposterous. it's possibly some issue with the bridge or nut, or you're hitting it retardedly hard. for me it was worn out saddles. i spent two weeks being neurotic about my picks and technique before realizing this simple thing, paying attention to where the string was breaking.
James Mitchell
all of you are plebs compared to me
Ian Ross
fucking gross!
Grayson Nguyen
You ain't trying hard enough.
Aaron Howard
Take the fingerpickpill
If you're not playing primarily fingerstyle tunes, you don't even need long ass nails. I just leave my pointer middle and ring nails a tad longer, barely noticeable.
Maybe it's worse for tone but I don't really care lol

It;s nice and thick in the fingers, the beveled edge is smooth on the strings (no slap like a lot of other picks) and the teardrop shape is (for me personally) more comfortable than a jazz pick.
Seriously, if you like jazz picks, dunlop flows, or other small picks, try these out.
Thomas Murphy
Isn't hybrid picking the best of both worlds? the sharp attack and tremolo ability of a plectrum with the range and control of fingerstyle.
William Evans
Fender extra heavys are a joke. What are they like 1.5mm? I wouldn't call a pick heavy until you get in the >3.5mm range
Chase Hernandez
it always felt weird to me having the pick attack on the bass note and the flesh sound on the higher notes
Caleb Carter
Fair enough. I think it depends on the style. Personally I find it sounds great when playing neoclassical metal or prog when hitting those wider intervals. the piano-ish sound of hitting all the notes at once is juicy with some distortion.
Kayden Hernandez
yeah i think i tend to just whack or rake over that sort of thing with good muting, impact, hendrix like, but that's a cool way too, much more precise
Henry Bennett
based, those are great. I like the jazz III style ones they make too.
Josiah Johnson
>not using thumbpicks
Camden Price
i think not.
Carter Lee
Just how thick are the Fender picks? I'm assuming heavy is 1.5 and extra heavy is 2. I always found Dunlop more comfortable though.
Asher Reyes
ur grandpa would be disappointed user
Carson Morris
I used to play with these and never thought twice about it. Switching to 1mm+ changed my fucking life.

Bunch of simps on this board honestly.
Jeremiah Torres
I have a friend who uses these. Get fucked.

What's the benefit of thicker picks? I don't think I've ever tried anything heavier than 1.0, currently using Herco 0.75 nylons.
Brody Campbell
Use your fingers.

Jazz III actually suck ass. There's much better for both strumming and soloing.
Owen Jenkins
This is the only pick I use at this point. It's perfect.
Matthew Harris
>every single note is muffled scraping without definition
Brayden Robinson
I have literally never used a pick. It just seems like such a foreign concept to me. Needlessly restrictive when you can use all of your fingers and obtain a bigger variety of tones than you could ever achieve with a pick, whether your picking with your fingernails, strumming aggressively with the backs of your fingernails or brushing gently with the side of your thumb.
Adrian Davis
that's not an "extra heavy pick" op
>this is

Just right.

I would love to hear an example of you doing this because the way you describe it sounds exactly like your favorite band- disgusting.
Parker Watson
oof
I bought a pack of these when I was like 16 and it was my first time buying picks. I'm pretty sure they were on sale or just cheaper than the others........ or maybe I was retarded and didn't realize they were different and I just thought they were different colors. Anyway, they're fucking dogshit and whenever I tell my guitar playing friends I once bought a pack of those they always laugh.
