From the Manufacturer DAddario/Planet Waves Guitar Picks Guitar picks may seem like a simple tool but with varying materials, shapesand colors to choose from, DAddario/Planet Waves has made it easier than everto help you find the right pick for your playing style. The following guidewill help you differentiate between varying shapes, materials and tonalcharacteristics. Pick Shape: DAddario/Planet Waves offers three different pick shapes, each having theirown advantages: Standard - Perfect for picking or strumming, the standard shape is by far the most popular as it offers enough area for a firm grip but also has more defined tip for good note articulation. Many players also turn the pick around and use the rounder edge for a softer attack and warmer tone. Wide - Wide picks are easy to hold and offer multiple picking areas by simply rotating the pick as one edge begins to wear. Jazz - Jazz shaped picks like our Black Ice Picks are the ultimate for pick control and articulation. The small size and sharp shaped tip allows the pick to have a fast response and bright tone with excellent note definition. This pick is a favorite among jazz, progressive rock and metal guitarists. Pick Material & Tone: Try this experiment. Take some picks of different material and drop them ontoa counter top. Notice how they all sound different when they hit the counter.The same rules apply when they strike a string as well. The material andthickness that your pick is made out of can have a dramatic effect on youroverall tone. Classic and Pearl Celluloid - Celluloid is one of the most popular guitar pick materials today. Available in a wide variety of shapes, colors and thicknesses, celluloid is known for providing a natural feel and warm, fat tone. A man-made material, celluloid was first introduced in the early 1900s as a substitute for natural tortoise shell picks. Our Pearl Celluloid Assortments are a top-selling choice. Duralin - Duralin is a unique material with an extraordinary combination of strength, stiffness, dimensional stability, fatigue resistance and low friction. Normally used as a replacement for metal bushings and bearings in industrial applications, this extremely durable polymer is ideal for picks. Duralin picks are known for their bright clicking sound when hitting strings and are preferred by many soloists for their clear articulation on fast single note passages. Cortex - Cortex picks are precision molded to eliminate grain structures, allowing for dynamic pick response. This unique material closely resembles actual tortoise shell in feel and sound yet offers high strength, durability and heat resistance. Cortex long lasting picks offer excellent attack with a clean, crisp tone for superior note definition, allowing notes to leap from your strings.
