About The Material These Picks Are Made From:

Wooden plectrums have been used traditionally throughout the world since the dawn of stringed instruments millennia ago.

Oak is perhaps the archetypal hardwood. Oak Wood is known for its classic grain pattern, as well as its strength, density, and durability. This means Oak Wood is well suited for many uses, and is generally very long lasting. Oak is an excellent wood for use in guitar picks.

Oak Wood comes from a genus of trees found natively in both the old world and the Americas, and is one of the most wide ranging types of hardwoods. Oak Wood is part of the Fagaceae family, which also includes Beech trees and Chestnuts. There are over 500 extant species of Oak trees, with around half of them growing in North America, and a number of species commonly referred to as Oaks which are technically classified differently by botanists.

Depending on the species, Oak trees can grow in temperate to tropical environments, and can reach heights of well in excess of 100 feet. Oak trees also have multiple uses in addition to being used for their timber. Tannins removed from Oak bark are still widely used to tan leather, and the acorns have traditionally been used as a food source for both people and animals.

The large size Oak trees reach can make them a very productive timber species per the amount of land used to grow them. Because of their natural resistance to rot and fungus which requires little to no chemical treatment compared to other woods, the long lasting and durable nature of Oak, and the fact that much of the Oak Wood harvested is intentionally farmed in a cycle of harvesting and replanting, it could be considered an environmentally friendly and sustainable species of wood. Oak Wood has traditionally been used for a wide variety of purposes including musical instruments, furniture, shipbuilding, building construction, decorative wood objects, and more.
