I'm on the thick picks side of life. I've even made and used 4mm steel picks. At the moment I digging Jazz III at 3mm thick...
Some years ago I met a fellow who was trying to start a guitar related parts company doing custom pickguards and picks and he asked for reviews at a local forum in which I was, much like this one but in Portuguese. I volunteered and got a pack of picks to test in which there were some 2 or 3mm thick ones. On the second trial, he sent me some really thick ones with 4 or 5mm. The company didn't move forward for some reason, but I got the thick pick bug and decided to make a forever lasting pick made out of steel, so I got a 4mm steel rod and grind a bunch of picks that I used for some years.I'm legit curious, as someone who grew up having to glue Fender thin picks together and using quarters and other odd objects as picks...how did you decide you need one that thick?
