They make ebony and rosewood picks?!? That's pretty cool.

I was wondering that too. This might be a ways down the road (years, at the rate I'm going, lol), but about the time I finished my CD it might be a cool promotional thing, buy a gross or two and include a free Drew Peterson pick with the first 100 purchases or something.
Yeah, I'm a dork, I should be shot.

I've used Clayton a couple of times and am real happy with what I've gotten.

Clayton doesn't charge a 'one time screen charge', like InTune does, but it looks like either Clayton or InTune would be the two best deals out there. Depends on quantity and material as to which of the two would be better.
YMMV
Enjoy!

Great thread... I'm in the process of designing my custom pick now.
Sadly, the only justifiable reason I'm doing it is because friends keep stealing my picks everytime they're over (not a big deal; but over months of doing it, we're talking like $50-$100 worth of picks from me lol)... atleast when I get these, if anyone steals one and I ask "whered you get this pick?"... they can't say "uh... the store", cause it'll have my name on it.

1.00mm Acetal is what I use. I tried one of Eaeolian's ultex picks, and I think I found my new pick material. I'm happy to see Clayton makes one, too, because I like the shape and rounded edges he uses.

Yes, In Tune does do a Jazz III shape. It's listed on their site as a Grip XX-J. They're pretty much exactly like the Dunlop Tortex Jazz picks.
HELL YES! I just finished making the graphic
Now to finish finding members and get vocals recorded.
I see that he has the Delrin picks now that he didn't when I looked in to them in the past. But he only has the matte finished ones.
I can not stand the sound of a matte finished pick (delrin, ultex, jazz III) because they scrape the string when they hit it. Fast picking always has a scraping sound that sound terrible to me.
I guess I'm stuck with dunlop since I didn't like In-Tune's celluloid.
But... I still have 200+ picks with the Division logo on them, so I'm not in a furry to get more picks.

Hmm... he's a lot more expensive than Dunlop at Dunlop quantities (i.e. 800 is cheaper from Dunlop), but he has the option to order a lot fewer. I'll have to look into it further once I have a logo.
I switched for a reason - the edges are MUCH better on the Claytons, especially on the ones I use.
Hmm... I do find that one out of every 10 or so Dunlops has a rounded point before I use it, so I have to throw it out. I also have been going through them about 1 pick every 5 hours of playing. I'll run out of Division picks sooner or later, and I'll give the Claytons a try.
Yeah, I had the same issue - the Dunlop quality control has been pretty crappy lately...
