for almost 20 years...
Clayton Ultem 1.20mm, standard pick shape, but sand them down into a used kinda dull point shape

They last me a couple months each, and I think I still have about 200 or more left... Lifetime supply
Music- Lugosi Smile, found everywhere migraine inducing music with a complete lack of taste is found

Go to is the Dunlop Dark Purple Little Stubby. Thick and small.

Sometimes I'll pop in about any of the tortex picks. I have a wide variety of those laying around.

And the Gravity picks that are loosely based on the Jazz III for when I want a little extra zing on top.

I have been using the Primetone Petrucci picks for a long time now. They last forever. I have been drilling holes in my picks since the 90's. It really seems to assist in my holding on to them.

I'm still using Ultex 1.14 sharps. The Hetfield black fangs and my FoM picks are all these, too. I also have some Hetfield white fangs, which I like a lot, too, but they don't sound as snappy as the Ultex sharps, even though they're supposed to be Ultex, too.

I dunno if Dunlop did something different with their materials the last couple of years, but these picks used to last me a good while. Like 2-3 months per pic. Now they wear out in a week.
