D’Addario/Planet Waves Guitar Picks Guitar picks may seem like a simple tool
but with varying materials, shapes and colors to choose from, D’Addario/Planet
Waves has made it easier than ever to help you find the right pick for your
playing style. The following guide will help you differentiate between varying
shapes, materials and tonal characteristics. Pick Shape: D’Addario/Planet
Waves offers three different pick shapes, each having their own 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 onto a 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 and thickness that your pick is
made out of can have a dramatic effect on your overall 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 1900’s 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. Attack, control, clarity
and durability…Cortex Picks! Nylflex – Inspired by the revered nylon picks
of the 50’s and 60’s, the D’Addario/Planet Waves Nyflex is the first nylon
pick to capture the flexible feel, warm tone and molded grip pattern of the
original, delivering an authentic, vintage playing experience in its entirety.
Now you can finally experience the feel and tone that was so eagerly sought
out by now Hall of Fame guitarist during the birth of rock-n-roll. Nylflex,
the modern pick for vintage tone! Cellu-Glo – D’Addario/Planet Waves puts a
new twist on celluloid picks. Now you can still have the natural feel and warm
fat tone of celluloid in a “glow in the dark” pick. Simply pre-charge the
picks in natural sunlight or under a light bulb and you have a pick that not
only sounds great but looks great too. The Cellu-Glo picks add a new visual
element to your playing and are also easy to find on dark stages. Experiment
and have fun with the tonal variations that can be achieved by simply changing
your pick. In fact, many guitarists and studio musicians will use different
