Jazz III's. They are really nice for accurate playing. After I got turned onto them, I have never looked back. They are really thick I would guess about 1.5 times thicker then a fender heavy pick. So, 1.5mm?
I use 1.14mm Tortex Jazz picks. I can't stand to use thin picks, medium picks I can deal with, and anything above 1.5 feels like I'm playing with a 2x4.
I've used the purple Tortex for probably 15 years now. I think they are 1.14 thickness. I sharpen them to a point though. I hate pics with a rounded end because I can't get enough attack. I will use thicker picks too if they are handy.
I used to use 2.0 mm picks almost religiously. They don't budge a bit, so they are very direct...superb for speedy downpicking. But I found out that I got much better note definition from 1.0 mm picks, so there's where I am now. I get a got more "snap" in the tone with em.
