Exotic Plectrums Delrin Black Guitar Or Bass Pick - 1.0 mm Heavy Gauge - Premium Made In USA - Extra Sharp 351 Precision Tip Shape
These premium Exotic Plectrums heavy gauge Delrin guitar picks are Black colored, and are proudly Made In USA. The Exotic Plectrums 351 Precision Tip is specially designed for soloists and intricate technical players. They are manufactured to exacting standards in America, from the finest US sourced raw materials, and feature an extra finishing step to improve the grip compared to many other Delrin picks. The special Delrin formula used closely replicates tortoise shell picks and minimizes pick chirp, while smoothly gliding over the strings. Delrin picks are an industry standard and have been one of the most popular pick materials worldwide for many decades because of their durability and tone. These picks are an excellent choice for those who like the feel of Delrin picks.
The 351 pick shape has been around for decades and is the most widely used guitar pick shape in the world. Many players find it to be the perfect size, shape, and tip profile for most situations, however it has its limitations. The tip profile of a standard 351 can become a limiting factor when certain levels of speed or precision are needed. Enter the Exotic Plectrums 351 Precision Tip. It all starts with a basic 351 shape, which is then brought down to a finer, sharper point. A sharper tip requires less pick between the strings, which makes for faster and more precise soloing. Combined with slant picking technique, it becomes a powerful combination for fast single note picking. The 351 Precision Tip still works great for rhythm guitar, but will increase your potential in soloing performance considerably.
Features and Benefits:
• Precise control and clarity
• Ideal for players who like to play fast
• The sharper tip helps reduce pick noise and provides a brighter, clearer tone, making them ideal for fast and intricate playing styles
• Less pick between the strings for faster and more precise solos
• The finer business end produces more treble and attack to help cut through the mix
• Ideal for soloists who employ slant picking techniques
• Superior design for effortless sweep picking
• The finer tip makes pinch harmonics easier (with thicker gauges)
• The 351 shape provides a better grip than the smaller Jazz shape because its larger size allows more surface to be held by the support fingers
• Delrin closely simulates traditional tortoise shell picks. It is firm but flexible, and glides off the strings minimizing pick chirp
• Matte finish for improved grip
• Made of durable, high quality genuine Delrin which stays sharp longer
• For maximum effectiveness choke up on the pick so that only 1 to 2 millimeters extend beyond the fingers and contact the strings (provides greater pick stability with less movement)
Perhaps the number one physical characteristic of Delrin is its immense durability. Delrin guitar picks are tough and last longer than many other pick materials such as celluloid or ABS plastic. Delrin is also known as an excellent replacement for traditional tortoise shell picks as it replicates many of the physical and tonal qualities, such as the right balance of stiffness and flexibility, and the smooth low friction glide across the strings. The sound of a Delrin pick is "organic" and "natural," brighter than nylon picks, but not as bright as polycarbonate picks.
Start exploring new tones with these Delrin guitar picks today, because the simplest and most inexpensive way to change your tone is to change your pick.

About The Material These Picks Are Made From:
Delrin is a popular material that has been around since the early 1960s and is used in countless products from lighters, to consumer electronics, to mechanical gears, and everything in between. In the music industry it has been used to replace traditional materials for a variety of items including Irish flutes, instrument mouthpieces, harpsichord plectra, drum stick tips, and many other products, but perhaps its most notable use is for guitar picks.
Delrin is a specific type of acetal, which is a thermoplastic used for items requiring high stiffness, strength, and low friction. Building upon polymer research by a German chemist in the 1920s, acetal was originally commercially developed in America in the 1950s, and the Delrin variant was released in 1960. The material quickly found its way into use in a wide variety of products, eventually including guitar picks.
All the qualities that make Delrin a great material for other applications also make it excellent for use in guitar picks. There are several slightly different variants of acetal available under different trade names like Delrin, Celcon, Tortex, Delrex, and Duracon for use in guitar picks, however the key properties for guitar players remain across all formulations.
After hitting the market, Delrin and other varieties of acetal rapidly became one of the most popular materials for guitar picks, and have remained so ever since. For guitar players, it was noticed that Delrin had similar physical and tonal qualities to traditional tortoise shell picks, but at a lower cost and with greater durability. Just the right balance of stiffness and flexibility, superior abrasion resistance compared to many other materials, enhanced longevity, and its low friction qualities combine to make Delrin perhaps the ultimate synthetic guitar pick material.
Today Delrin is the pick material of choice for many guitar players. If you have never tried a Delrin pick before, give it a go, and you just might discover your new favorite guitar pick!
