yeah, enough to belt out loud notes, but still be able to hear the pick brush across the strings.

but too thin and it's not brushing but clicking that you hear. and you lose a lot of speed to do things like tremelo picking. i think .8-1.2 is about right for acoustic and anywhere from 1-2 for electric.

It may feel weird at first to have such a large pick (most people start out with thin) but i seriously see my ability and my tone improve a lot with thicker guage picks
