Black And White Buffalo Horn Guitar Or Bass Pick - 3.0 mm Ultra Heavy Gauge - 351 Groove Shape - Polished Finish Handmade Specialty Exotic Plectrum
These natural Black And White Buffalo Horn plectrums are a great addition to your exotic guitar pick collection.. Each pick is handcrafted and buffed to a polished finish. These exotic plectrums can be used for any stringed instrument, and sound great for acoustic or electric guitar players. Buffalo horn naturally appears in black and white, with some portions being solid black or white, and some sections mixed coloration. These black and white picks are hand selected for ones that have both colors present in every pick, which can make for an interesting appearance. These picks feel very smooth and comfortable in the hand and feature a thumb groove on one side and a longer thinner groove on the other to assist the player in holding on to them.
Horn picks are known to closely mimic the tonal qualities of the tortoise shell picks of the past, which were traditionally one of the most popular pick materials. This is because they are made of keratin, which is the same material a tortoise shell is composed of. Horn plectrums offer a very warm and mellow tone.
These picks are in a polished finish and have a very attractive aesthetic and natural beauty. Because these are a handmade product each one is unique and will vary in appearance, as well as slightly in size and thickness. These plectrums are a very thick heavy gauge and measure approximately 3mm where you grip the pick, and are beveled down at the tip.

About The Material These Picks Are Made From:
Plectrums made from animal horn have been used traditionally throughout the world since the dawn of stringed instruments millennia ago.
Horn is one of the most popular and versatile natural materials available for making guitar picks. Prior to the 20th century tortoise shell was perhaps the most sought after material used for crafting guitar picks. A combination of excellent tone, flexibility compared to many other natural materials, and other more subtle qualities made it highly desirable. Tortoise shell was so perfectly suited to the task of being used as a pick that to this day most modern synthetic materials used for guitar picks are still trying to replicate the qualities of natural tortoise shell.
Fortunately, nature already created a solution. Because horn is made of keratin, the same material as tortoise shell, the tonal qualities are very similar. This makes horn an excellent natural substitute to tortoise shell for making guitar picks.
