I have a special pick.
It has to be a "Fender Heavy".
Dont ask me why cause ofcourse theres no real reason.
But I feel that if Im not playing a Fender Heavy, or at least having one in my pocket, things are not going that well.
Now I would like to know if someone else have a favourite pick, and dont just come and say:
"I like 0,9 mm"
It has to be a specific brand and a specific model.

On the Plectrum question yes its called a Plectrun pick,
unless your useing a thumb pick,thens its just called a,
Thumb pick.
I think all guitar player's go thro a pick thing,plus
faverite picks that they like thro thier years of,
playing. I've used alot of odd shaped picks thro the years.
The picks i use today is a fender-medium pick plus i,
use a Dunlop Jazz III pick for alot of speed stuff.
I used to also use the old national metal picks for,
the 2d&3d fingers of my right hand.(for a Hibrid Style)
But who knows mabee next year i'll be useing a,
Fender Heavy...........

p:s I've been playing guitar since 1961 so i've used alot,
of picks in my time and still try new ones out!
Also forgot to mention i like to use the fat part of the,
fender pick for digging in when playing Blue's ,
Really i like useing every part of the pick for most everything i play even the dunlop.
