Got a wegen 7 yesterday and I have decided that this is the perfect pick for me. There was something about how it fit into my fingers and the ease with which I could alternate and hybrid pick plus the way it worked well for hybrid picking for me, that made me decide that nothing surpasses it for me and I have used the thick V-Picks, buffalo horn picks, and stone picks before.

I even ordered a second one from Indoor Storm, which has them for $15 shipped.

Cheaper than anywhere else I have found.

YMMV.

Have you ever tried Hawaiian-style picks? I've heard that the pineapple gives an almost metallic ring to your playing.

Hey man, good to see another 7 user! I tried one a while ago and it just felt so much better to use. It does sound a little bit different when I hit the strings with it than the usual thin picks, but I kinda like that. Not too much of a change soundwise, but definitely easier on the grip.
Don't hate on huge picks.

I just started using a pick to prepare me for my eventual baritone purchase. I generally like finger style on bass.

but did you hear about the one made from a meteorite? $4,674 each
I use snarling dogs aka brain picks. EXACTLY like the dunlop max grip or the ice picks with the texture. I use green for almost everything but purple for soloing/fast playing. have you ever tried sweep picking or strumming your electric with a jazz pick. uh oh. but jazz picks are the shit for fast up/down picking. or for that low C breakdown chug chug

Alternating index and middle finger for most... but some cases...

I've tried them all, purple to red, jazz, sharp, celluloid... this is it.

The orange dunlop tortexs. Too lazy to look up how thick they are, .60 something. On the occasions I use a pick for bass I usually use the 1mm tortexes.
Oh yeah, my strings are usually tens.
