Pickers - what picks are you using?

I got one of the brand new picks from Wolfram (not the metal ones), it's one of the only thick picks that doesn't sound dull and thuddy, down to the way the bevel is made and polished.

I can only find the tungsten pick on their site.

He was taking special orders at the London Acoustic Show, I think he's releasing them publicly after XMas.

They are made from acrylic and cut on a laser cutter, then the bevel cutting, shaping and polishing is done by hand.

They are incredibly smooth, just gliding across the strings.

Can't do plecs with acoustic. Finger strumming and fingerpicking for me.

It's not all about you.

Actually I have a note from God saying that it is, but hey, spoilers.

Still trying to find a decent thumb pick but I cut down and modified the one I have, it can basically do it all, from little lead lines to strumming to thumb picking, although I'm still on a big learning curve, it seems the best all round thing to do if you haven't got any nails.

Mainly fingers but also 3mm jazz stubbys

Anything thin for strumming but mostly fingers.
