I've been slowly working up my dunlop tortex pick sizes - mainly as a way to increase my strengh and speed - I haven't been forcing it and only changed when it felt right which is probably why I've only moves a few sizes in a few years.

But I have to say (most probably affected by the jump in string gauge I've made over time) that bigger picks give a better sound as they hit the strings harder making more resonence. However does this always translate to tone? It must surely depend on the player; for a speed metal player would most certainly faver a thinner pick to play uber fast runs without the level of picking changing allowing the volume to stay even.

So I'd say it depends on many things; least of all style.

One thing that made me think recently was the re-recording of one of my songs 'Energise' because I had done the middle section sloppy. (more than useral) I used a different guitar with thinner strings (but because I'm used to think it was actually harder) and the section sounded alot better but this could be due to the tone wood or the fact I had already recorded it before.

Well I'm going a bit off topic so I'll cut short to see what you think and chime in a little later down the line.
