And I always thought I was the only one who liked wound 3rds :rock: (I use a heavier gauge though)

Picks switch a lot 2mm+

Dunlop Jazz III pitch black .73
Elixir nanoweb
Pickups depend on the guitar but a JB is hard to beat.
 
Dunlop Ultex Sharp .90mm
Ernie Ball .10-.46
Currently 490/498 and 57/08 respectively in my Gibson Standard and PRS Ltd Edition SC245


Be using motor city pickups most likely if I had spare coin.
 
Dunlop Ultex Sharp or Hetfield Black Fang, 1mm-ish.
Mostly Ernie Ball Reg Slinkys, but I am digging Elixir Nanoweb 10-52 for my Tele with D tuner.
Always looking for a better JB... BKP nailbomb and MCP afwayu have done well for me. There will be more MCPs in my future.
