This would have been my exact response.

My pants pocket often sports a Slick Pick medium, with custom short shark fin. I don't leave picks in my pockets (fear of a pick pocket pick pocketing the picks in my pick pocket?)

Instead I have a little leather pick pocket with a snap attached to my keys: if I am out and about, I generally have them. In the leather pick pocket I usually have a Wegen, a Blue Chip, and a Tortoise. If someone needs a pick I might loan them the Wegen. If someone needs a pick and I like them, I might loan them the Blue Chip. If someone needs a pick and I know where their children live, then I might... might... loan them the tortoise.

Of course, most of the time I use my fingers...

I can't count how many times someone has looked around, then looked at me, and said "Alex you have a pick, right?"

I just switched from standard tip 1.14m ultex to 0.9mm sharp tip ultex. Always have two, I rub them together as a fidget toy because the texture is so cool.

Dunlop 207 and a green ‘Roll Me Up’ beauty handed to each member of my family by one of Willie Nelson’s roadies. True story. You can probably buy these but we didn’t.

My step dad Fred is an 8o year old tin can sailor. Got us front row seats to Willie in Bethlehem PA. Roadie was overseeing the stage setup when he noticed Fred’s hat. Came down and gave each of us a pick and thanked Fred for his service. Beautiful moment. Cheers!

I have one Dunlop Primetone 2.0 and a V-Pick Screamer 2.75.
Two different sounding picks.

I couldn't imagine going around without some picks, a few knives, a multi-tool and well over a hundred dollars cash.




The Wegen and the Ultex are still there, the Blue Chip is now a 40.

Fender Premium Celluloid which are my favorite picks. the glossy finish just feels good in your hands and slides across the strings very nicely.

Thanks for asking OP! To my surprise I have a Gravity 1.10 pick in my shirt pocket. Somehow it stayed there through a wash and dry cycle. Good clean tone from the Strat and Martin I've been keeping within reach this week.
