Fender medium mostly, sometimes fender thins. Usually, I just play with whatever edge isn't chipped. That way they last 3 times a long.

For electric, Dunlop tortex jazz H3 (purple). For acoustic strumming, Dunlop nylon 1mm (black). Just the tip.

Jim Dunlops of various gauges from 0.5s to 2mms. My thick ones are left over from my Freddy Green period. Some thumb and finger picks. Nearly always I use the tip.
And I make my own.
I had dozens of home-made picks that I created while in Korea from GI plastic washbasins back in 1988. My wife spent three decades throwing the strays away until she got the backstory of their creation from me. Maybe 5 or 6 still exist. Now I have a wide selection of credit card picks and picks created from plastic packing materials.

I long ago settled on Graph Tech Tusq 0.83 picks but play okay with most offerings at that general gauge.

dunlop jazz medium tortex (green or black) green feels stiffer. Also, jazz iii variations, including the Eric Johnson ones, which have a surprisingly different feel to a plain jazz iii. Trying v-picks euro which is also pretty cool. have gone through every think including aluminum, brass, wood, coconut shell, etc lol

Small teardrop (358), heavy gauge. I've used Ultem in the past but switched back to old-fashioned celluloid. I prefer D'Andrea but Fender will do. The Fender picks don't last as long though.
