those are the ones I use

that or the .72 ones with the aliagator on them, because those are a little easier to hold onto and have the same sound.

I use fingers but I have some of those picks in different colours. I like the non-glossy feel to them.

I use the dunlop 2.0mm ...they're beastly but I like the feel of something that aint gonna bend... if I need any softness in my tone I can add it by loosening my grip.

The non-glossy feel is deffinately a plus

I used Dunlop for years and years (started using them in 1980 - I think it was).

Then I found the .88 Cools......IMO the best pic going....but that's me! Damn things seem nearly impossible to drop..

I used the green Dunlop ones typically (0.88?). I also have a couple odds and ends sizes here and there that I've found/bought/been given by guitarists I've jammed with.

Fender Delrin Heavy 1mm Blue. Sometimes.
95% of the time you just can't beat fingers.

I tried the Black Gold Dunlops and loved them, but they quit making them.

I even tried these goofy things.

I don't know the gauge, but I'm a fan of the orange Dunlops.

Brain pics. Supposed to be a "cat's tounge" grip. Must work, because I don't think I've ever dropped one.
