lol..I saw a picture of his pedalboard and it looked like he kept a few there.

As far as I can tell and Remember, unlike a majority of other guitarists, Prince did not keep extra picks taped down his microphone stand...maybe early on he did but not from 1999 on.... Stupid huh

He had grooves at the bottom of his mic stand and the picks were inserted in there. I was fortunate enough to see them up close many a time at Paisley Park. Once, a dude next to me tried to take one after the show and the bodyguard nearly ripped his arm off.
