Some great lists. Glad to see other than the usual suspects (good mention on Mark Eitzel).
So, apart from Dylan, here are some others that either weren't mentioned or I missed...
Tom Waits
Hank Williams
Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill
Buddy Holly (and/or Joe B. Mauldin, Niki Sullivan, Norman Petty)
Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart
Jimmy Webb
Patti Smith
Willie Dixon

The first two were omissions. The third would probably have occupied a spot on my list if I'd thought of them. I did consider Cindy Walker and Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn.
The sooner we put those assholes in the grave&piss on the dirt above it, the better off we'll be
I still have a few of these. I usually take a couple with me to shows and trade 'em to musicians for their picks. Isbell loved 'em, gave me a couple of his, and told we it was a "swell swap".

that is fucking awesome! I saw them at the Warfield in 2001 and was on the rail, right in front of Nigel. He patted me head and shook my hand twice but alas no picks
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing
