He uses 0.6mm Dunlop Tortex picks. The standard picks are orange in this thickness, but Dave uses custom black versions with a DMB logo printed on them.

Good question n00b! I've always wondered that myself but was too scared to ask

the vaginal fluid they are secreting is the same composition of urine minus the uric acid and phosphorous. i learned that in 11th grade anatomy. btw, sometimes it does have a FAINT smell of Pizzle.

I use the giant triangle picks that Fender puts out (medium). I have monstro hands and regular size picks just don't fit in my fingers. There are also giant triangle picks that have differnent thicknesses on each end, giving you different options while you're actually playing.

I 've started to use thicker and thicker picks with my electric, and the tortex 1mms are my choice picks. When playing lead the thicker picks are more effective IMO.
