Of course vintage picks are better… (Eric Johnson)

[Mincer]

Where does Bonamassa weight in on this issue? As in he has these too, right?

They have a "JB" on them, which makes them completely different.

The Petrucci picks are a little bigger than standard Jazz III.

You talking about the JP Trinity picks?

I really like those and they last forever with the material and three tips each.
My all-around pick of choice is the carbon-fiber max-grip Jazz3 but sometimes I like the change of the Trinity and it's very easy to go back and forth between those two types.

Oh OK those are the standard JPs.

People should give those Trinity picks a try. They're really good for fast alt-picking and they are 3in1.

Eric Johnson is very discerning. He's a tone hound. I recall an interview I read where he said he removes cabinet casters and keeps the cabinet directly on the stage floor to produce a wider frequency spread. Brilliant guy.

I agree with Eric on the casters. Depends on the floor but generally I like cabs directly coupled for the thicker lows and lower-mids it provides.
