Delrin Orange Guitar Or Bass Pick - 0.60 mm Medium Light Gauge - Premium Made In USA - 355 Large Triangle Shape
These premium medium light gauge Delrin guitar picks are Orange colored with no printing or logo on them, and are proudly Made In USA. 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 355 Large Triangle shape has been around for decades and is one of the most popular pick shapes. The 355 is especially favored by many bass players because of its very large size.
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 at a great price.
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.

• Material: Delrin

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!
