The perfect pick!
Most of us guitarists ignore the influence of pick to the tone.
But here is where it all begins!
Not at the strings, pickup, guitar or Amp - the pick is the first thing - and it's in your hand!
So don't save your money and ignore even these little things in guitarist-life.
Let's see:
A good pick needs a good grip, so you won't lose it.
It has too feel ergonomic, so it will be one with your fingers and won't get tired of holding it.
It should hit the strings hard enough without stopping you motion.
It should release the strings fast, rolling-off and without killing the tone.
The material shouldn't swallow the tone.
Well... It sounds impossible?
No!!!
Buy Dunlop Big Stubby picks - and you'll see!
I use 1.00mm and 2.00mm

One of My Favorites
These larger 1mm version of the jazz stubby are one of my favourite picks for articulated picking on the electric guitar. For rock, country, and blues I use these almost exclusively.
The durability is great except once the tip wears a little you lose that articulation that these picks are known for. I keep the worn ones around for strumming. The thickness can take some getting used to if you are coming from a thinner delrin pick, but you might never go back. They are comfortable to hold as well because of the the thickness and the indent for the finger and thumb. I found that my pick hold would change throughout playing with a thinner pick but these help eliviate fatigue for longer sessions which is great.
Seriously give these a try. I wasn't one for stubby's, but these lareger versions are amazing.

Very good pics
I am using Big Stubby pics (1.0 and 2.0) since 1995. For all those years they are my main pics for electric guitar.
In case of 1 mm thick, there is problem with handling - during live gigs, when fingers are getting sweat, I am losing the grip sometimes. The 2 mm (thicker) pics are less problematic in that case.
Those pics are not very durable, but still, the feel and tone are more important to me.
Product, I can recommend.

good for plectrum users
I was going to use these but I decided I much prefer the tone of the fingerstyle.
But they are well made.

one of a kind
I play a Telecaster fitted with Pyramid Vintage 13 gauge strings, drop tuned a whole step with a capo on the second fret. These are beautiful but demanding strings, and I find the Dunlop Big Stubby 1.00mm picks have just the right amount of 'heft' to get these strings really moving, but without being noisy. They last a long time and have become an integral part of my preferred clean sound - I love 'em!

My favourite pick!
Love these plectrums, and Thomann doing a mulit pack for such a small price means that I get a pack almost every time I order! They are thick and so don't bend at all, but the rounded edges means they hit the strings more like a thinner pick. Very nice!
