I have the same problem with my Frontman amp. I think part of the problem is because it's a solid state amp, I tried a friends Mesa tube amp using my own set-up and I found that the picking sound wasn't as noticeable. It doesn't totaly eliminate the problem but it does make a difference.

Side note. I tried TheDirt's suggestion about picking technique and it helps. Thanks for the tip! :)
Jimmie showed me alot of stuff, but there was a time when he warned, 'If you ask me to show you anything again, I'll kick your ass.' Well, I did and he did. - SRV
