Thank you, it is not only strumming then. I have Primetone triangle 1.5 mm (brown, without grip) and Ultex 1.14 mm, I like them, but I also noticed that the tone on E and B strings is not pleasant to my ear. I put a bevel on Ultex and polished all bevels on Primetone, though.

I mostly play with fingers, but from time to time I have a strong feeling to learn flatpicking, then I play with picks.

Currently, Blue Chip is not an option, they charge around $15 minimum shipping to my destination, too much I think, but I am potentially interested to try them one day.
