This is but the first of a number of polls to explore people's preferences in much of which you speak. however, I will consider your comments and may augment them with my initial list as follows: 1. Shape (see above) 2. Material 3. Thickness 4. Rigidity/flexibility 5. Point 6. Bevelled or unbevelled Thanks again.

I use a BlueChip TAD-3R 60 with rounded bevels on each of the 3 corners.
I was ordering the TD60s and I found the non beveled rounded corners sounded best on my guitars so I thought why not have that on all three sides. The thickness of tone is impressive with them. After trying 5 or so different Bluechip picks this is what I settled on a few years back. I have about 6 of them in total. |

I prefer a nice rounded large triangle because that size helps me keep the pick in my hands. For recording, TV and radio appearances I’ll usually go for a Charmed Life Black or Blonde however I recently picked up a brown vespel that is about 0.85 thickness that I really like. For gigs and plugged in playing I usually use a Steve Clayton Ultex large triangle 0.80. I also drill grip holes in all my picks to help them stay in my hand.

I like medium sized rounded triangle shaped picks, in the .89mm-1.0mm range, with right hand bevels. I use Bluechips either a TPR35 or TPR40.

I voted 'other' as the typical Fender 351 style pick is considered 'standard.'

I voted for the smaller triangle because I've been primarily playing with that for the past several years. However, if I could vote for 2 sizes or have a 1A, it would be the Bluechip SR sized pick. It's quickly becoming a favorite.
