Which pick suits me?

Plectrums, also known as picks, plectra or, according to Wikipedia, even 'Zupflümmel', are part of a guitarist's basic toolkit. This applies equally to players of electric guitars, acoustic guitars and basses. Picks come in a wide variety of shapes and colours, so it's not easy to keep track and find the right pick for yourself. In this tutorial Olli explains the three main criteria when choosing a pick: thickness, shape and material.
