Does someone play guitar here?

Well, mariolover seems to have summed it up pretty well. I'd suggest a thinner one for starting out, because at first you may have trouble with the rigidness of thicker picks - it'll keep snagging the strings. When you get used to using a pick, I'd suggest moving on to a little thicker one. I found bliss in a mid-sized pick that came with my guitar strap.

Of course, this is all for guitar - but I guess the two instruments are similar..
