In the acoustic flat picking world many of us use a larger triangle shape pick (see below) with a thickness of 1.25mm and up. But when playing electric I (and others) almost always go to 351 shape...
Holy Moley! That's a fascinating story, and it all checks out in the book about him I'm reading. He was treated as God in DC, so it doesn't surprise me how his rabid fans treated you. From all...

I got the most from a book called Inside Outside by Reese Markevich a long time ago. I don't know where you could find it now. It's OOP.
WTH? What am I supposed to do now with my outrage that it was taken off?:doh:
