changing out picks?

Post by geo3217 »

If you have a set of medium or heavy picks that don't break, does anyone change them out after using one pick for so long? I have found that after a while my Dunlop Tortex picks tend to lose some of their grip, so I try to only use one for so long and then throw it away.

typically i throw them away when the tips wear down to the point where i cant get a crisp sound out of them.
Do I listen to pop music because I'm miserable or am I miserable because I listen to pop music?

im not a huge fan of the heavy picks, medium is as thick as ill go, and i usually use thin even on acoustics... i just like how fluid i can move my wrist with a thin pick compared to a thick one
