So what it comes down to - You can use any thickness of pick to play any style of guitar. You just have to modify the way you hold the pick to accomodate the thickness. One way to use a thin pick is to hold it toward the bottom edge(which, as I see it, is simulating a thicker/stiffer pick). See-I too learned something from this. Unless I'm mistaken, thats what we are all here for....
