i've noticed that too, it may be that the thickness of the pick is different. different thicknesses are better for diferent styles.



i wouldn't worry about it, it happens to me all the time, everytime i lose a pick and have use a new one. you just have to get used to it al over again.
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.

yeah me too. But something ive found out: when playing lead and stuff like that (malmsteenism) use a really heavy pick and sharpen the end. the causes less of the pick to hit the string, letting you pick faster. Cool huh?

Ya, its like that for most of us. But I normally play with whatever I can find.... so I kinda got used to it.
Rock on.
