My bro uses stubbies for bass. I don't like using them for guitar all the time becuase I have a very gentle touch. If I was actually playing in a band that did rock, which I haven't for two years, I would use stubbies without exception.

Going all the way back to JSV- I dig those picks. You're the man.

I used standard picks for the longest time, but the last time I got new strings I saw a bucket of picks that were going for 7/$ so I grabbed a bunch. One was a teardrop shape like yours and I fell in love with the shape the first time I used it. While I liked the pick more than my usual picks, I had a few small complaints about it.

1. It was kinda slick plastic. Not a problem with what you mentioned.

2. It wasn't quite thick enough for me. Yours are (1.14 mm).

3. It was a bit blunt, not as precise as what I like. Your picks obviously don't have that problem.


So, yeah. I'm definitely going to be trying for something like that as soon as I can.
