No...people say I already sound like I'm playin' stoned!

 

I already have rocks in my head. I would be dangerous with them in my hand holding a guitar.

 

The concept doesn't seem quite right to me. I thought man moved away from using rocks as tools about 5,000 years ago. Maybe guitarists are just not very highly evolved.

I tried the stone picks many years ago. They were pretty. Having said that I just couldn't get them to sound good to my ears. They made a decided click when flat picking individual strings. My be my technique but they didn't work for me.

Whoa! . . One of those is priced at a whopping $85.

 

I'm not one for spending big money on a pic, regardless of what material they're made of. . B)

Yes indeed. They can certainly produce a glassy, ticking kind of noise on the strings. A flat angle of attack and very firm grip can minimize this noise, but it's still there. I still have a couple in the box but they don't suit me much either.
