My personal favorite guitar pick is the "Dunlop Tortex .88mm" guitar pick.These picks are very very strong and don't shred to pieces and break like other picks.I would really recommend getting these!http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Dunlop-Tortex-Standard-Picks?sku=110040The only thing is, you need to decide what thickness you want it.. Thicker ones produce a deeper sound on a guitar, and thinner ones make a lighter sound on the guitar. So you need to decide what thickness you want.. I love .88mm
Don't make the mistake of stacking it up there. That is a dangerous proposal. Use the sheeting as you hand it up.

If he picks on you , he most likely already likes you and just doesn't want to admit it.
That all depends on your style. If you want to play Rock or Metal, I'd recomend a heavy pick, since it'll give you a very heavy sound, but if you want to play an acoustic guitar, it's best to use a lighter pick, since that'll give a great jangly sound. If you want to get a pick that'll do everything, get a medium pick. Generally the thinner the pick the easier it is to play with
