Advice re pick/plectrums please.

Snags said:

I use the .73mm with acoustics, which seems to be a reasonable balance between robustness, volume, tone, but not being too harsh on the attack compared to a "medium" pick.

I go .73 up to around .88 or so. I tend to play more with the rounded edges than the sharper leading edge. I play acoustic solely at present.

Well the verdict is in having spent a good while yesterday testing practically all suggested picks with the exception of felt ones the verdict is in:

For acoustic strumming Jim Dunlop nylon .46 and/or Jim Dunlop .38 but .38 used with the broad end/corner strumming.
For more precise picking and definition Jim Dunlop tortes flow .50

For electric - completely different. Let’s not go there!

A very interesting process to end up where I started but useful nevertheless.
Thanks for all the input.
