PICKBOY POLYACETAL｜Polyacetal teardrop pick
A polyacetal guitar pick that features a clear attack and stable playing feel.
The standard teardrop shape is available in three thicknesses: 0.60mm, 0.80mm, and 1.00mm. This model combines pink metallic, silver, and gold colors for each thickness, and features the classic PICKBOY logo.
Polyacetal is a resin material with excellent wear resistance, a smooth surface, and moderate hardness. Suitable for guitarists who want stable picking and a clear, contoured attack that makes it easy to check string separation.
The teardrop shape is a standard shape that makes it easy to capture the tip. It is easy to use for a wide range of purposes, from chord strokes to single note play, and can be used with both acoustic and electric guitars.
[Choose from 3 different thicknesses to suit your playing style]
0.60mm｜Pink metallic
Medium gauge that makes it easy to feel moderate bending. For those who mainly play chord strokes or those who want to make the strings lighter. The thickness makes it easy for those who are concerned about thick picks getting caught on strings to try them out.
0.80mm｜Silver
Medium gauge makes it easy to balance flexibility and picking response. This thickness is easy to use as a standard for those who use both strokes and single-note picks, or those who want to try a polyacetal pick first.
1.00mm｜Gold
Heavy gauge with less bend than 0.60mm and 0.80mm. Suitable for those who want to control single notes while feeling the response of the pick, and those who emphasize lead play.
[Recommended for these guitarists]
- Those looking for a clear and contoured attack
- Those looking for a pick that is hard to wear and has a stable playing feel.
- Those looking for a pick that is easy to use for both chord strokes and single note playing
- Those who want to try out string separation and surface feel that are different from celluloid.
- Those who want to choose a pick that suits them by comparing the difference in playing comfort depending on the thickness.
[Material called polyacetal]
Polyacetal (POM) is a resin material with excellent wear resistance. It has a smooth surface and moderate hardness, making it easy to pick stably. It has a different surface feel and string separation than celluloid, so it is also recommended for those who want to experiment with the difference in playing feel depending on the material.
Even though they are made of the same polyacetal, the way they bend and the way they hit the strings will vary depending on the thickness. If you want to play mainly strokes, choose 0.60mm, if you want to play strokes and single notes with a good balance, choose 0.80mm, and if you want to play single notes or leads with a firmer response, choose 1.00mm.
[PICKBOY CLASSIC LOGO]
The history of PICKBOY, which has continued since 1967, is captured in this one piece.
PICKBOY is a guitar pick brand that started in 1967. The classic logo on this model is one of the designs that conveys the history of PICKBOY, which was used from around 1975-76 to around 1989.
It has a unique form that somewhat reminds me of the video game ``Pac-Man'', but this logo began to be used before Pac-Man appeared in 1980. A playful design born out of PICKBOY's history.
The classic logo that retains the atmosphere of those days is also used in today's performances. This is a piece where you can feel the history unique to PICKBOY, as well as the playing comfort due to the material and thickness.
