so... I have a question for you gents. I tend to play with a high/thick tip. It's domed, just like any other, except that I don't sand it as low down as most other people do. Would this affect anything play-wise? And if so, is there an optimum thickness?

I was taught to do it the old-fashioned way... sandpaper and lots of elbow grease. built character...
