    Bonjour Titibonehead!

    Ernie Ball doesn't make the teardrop shaped picks (as I cry teardrops shaped like teardrop picks). You could try any of the big pick companies...

    Welcome to the forum! Hope to see you around more!

    Amities,

    i like their red and green teardrops

    i gotta look into the custom EB pics. I think a few hundered picks that said "Phatty" on em would be pretty pimp

    EB Custom Picks

    I ordered custom picks from EB about 25 years or so ago.
    I became friends with a guy who I played in several bands with over the years. He became my main drummer, and eventually my employer.
    His earliest memory of me is that I was the first person he ever met who had custom picks.
    We are now in the business of making picks, both custom picks, and picks for major musical instrument companies. (EB sometimes gets picks from us.)
    I like the fact that these picks foreshadowed my future career.
    Plus, they are really great picks!

    I get my teardrop picks through Clayton Custom. Good quality, good printing, fast turn around, good customer service and an easy to use web interface. Even shipping to France, I normally have them in less than 2 weeks.

    Believe me, it's not just a French thing. It's a general audience thing.

    (The Paris thing is not to clap at all, ever, even if your life depends on it, just in case somebody sees you enjoying yourself or appreciating something. Outside of Paris, they just love everything and are usually wildly appreciative.)

    I tend to like Fender 358's these days.
    But I'd buy the EB versions (if they only made them....)
