How many picks do you have?

[Spudman]

Well I am "proud" to say that I have 276 picks :AOK:
GG

You have much patience Grasshopperette.

Now snatch the Coricidin bottle from my hand.

And to think I ALMOST didn't read this thread given the title - and look what I would have missed...!

Thought this would be the perfect place to jump in and introduce myself.

I'm currently sitting at around 10,000 plus guitar picks! My son's band is NEVER looking for picks in this place! LOL

I actually do custom guitar picks in small and large quantities. If anyone's looking, I'd love it if you would check out my website at www.egopicks.com.

Cheers from Canada!

I've got a pick that's labelled 'Made in USA' how can i be sure its not a cheap 'Made in Mexico' copy?

Any tips on how to modify this pick. I was thinking maybe spend a few pence and I could get it to sound like a pick five times the value.

 

[sumitomo]

To find out if it is a REAL made in the USA,just smell it,yep if it smell's like a pick it's the real mccoy.Now to modify it use super glue to build up edges ect.but make sure you let the super glue dry on your fingers before you take a piss,dont' ask! Sumi

Nice product but only one thickness?

 

[Brian Krashpad]

People actually counted?

AND had into 3 figures?

Mine are constantly running and hiding from me. I can never find more than a couple dozen, max. And that's on a good day. More often about half that. Plus, I have to have 3 different thicknesses, one for guitar, one for bass guitar, and one for mandolin.

 

[EnglishJW]

How about more information on your Picks!

It appears we have agreed not to count ... Can we try something different? What shape, thickness or materials do you prefer for your picks? I play bass and guitar. My picks tend to be heavy. For well over a year, I have stayed with Dunlop (manufacturer) Tortex (material) Wedges (shape) of 1.00 or 1.14 (thickness). How about the rest of you?

This is all I have left in the world for picks... :-(

It's a crap shoot around here.. I either have a coffee can full of them, or four.

Which brings up a funny story... I was itching to practice one day many moons ago, there wasn't a pick in the house. Except one... that I'd gotten from Frank Hannon at a Frank Hannon Band show. While I'm agonizing about whether or not I should use it, Frank's voice popped into my head: "Dude.. it's a pick." So I used it (not that it made me any better, but what the hell)...

I retold that tale on Frank's forum after the incident.. everyone got a big chuckle out of it.

Two years later, at a Tesla show, Frank leaned down to where I was standing (right in front of him, of course.. lol) and handed me a "replacement" pick. LOL

Okay.. that was my 5 seconds of "I rule more than anyone".

[guitarhack]

I have 3 that I can find. I'm sure there's a couple more hiding somewhere.

 

[Robert]

I think I have more picks than Jeff Beck, at least. Maybe Knopfler too.

 

[mainestratman]

Robert.. you don't need picks..

I have lots of coffee cans but not enough picks.

Can't believe I missed this thread.... :thwap
