Ive been using the 1.9mm Acetal picks for a few years now and cant imagine using anything else.
I've never broken one and they feel nice and solid, plus they seem to grip well.

Make your own. lol Picks can't get much more custom than this. I don't even use a pick on basses.

PICK PUNCH Make your own guitar picks!

I ordered one. And 2 more to give as gifts this Christmas. Basically, you punch a pick out of any thin plastic material. They sell sheets of pick material, but I think it's cooler to punch them out of used gift cards. You have to sand them a bit to smooth the edges, but otherwise it works fine.

I have the ultrex in the heaviest gauge. Very interesting and have a great attack and sound. Of all the picks I have used, these are darn near the top. The only pick that tops it in my mind is the Dunlop Jazz III XL, but you can't get them custom printed.

I love my Claytons. I have enough to last me two tours, at least.

I have never had the Customs made, but I have used bothy the Acetal and Black Ravens. These are my favorite production picks- the Black Ravens have a better tone for bass, as it produces less attack and as a result a nicer tone in the low end with less "thack, thack, thack" noise you get with pick use than the Acetals. If it weren't for discovering Gravity picks and then subsequently V-Picks (the screamers are by far the best pick I have ever used!) the dozen Black Ravens I have sitting around would still be in use.

I ordered a batch of Clayton custom picks for my boy who
plays guitar. My boy created a design on the computer. We
had picks with the design made. They're cool. He uses them
all the time and they're all over the house.
