wow this is cool too see thanks for sending the link johnny!

looks like andy is using really thick picks these days. those linked on
the page are in the 1.5 -2.0 mm range.
i was wondering why andy's telecaster tone on police songs during this
recent tour promo events doesn't have the same sting (no pun intended)
that it used to have. those thicker picks will provide a slower
articulation and more round tone.

i also noticed andy's phrasing is different than it was in the old
days... for instance the grooves on message and roxanne just don't have
the same drive, and a dramatically different gauge and shape of pick can
do that.
