Description
This wooden guitar pick is made out of Mallee Burl.
<br />
<br />Mallee Burl has simple, but beautiful darker colored grains than regular maple, but also has the perfect density to be a sturdy guitar pick. (Burl - a knot on the side of a tree containing beautiful dense, grain figuration).
<br />
<br />It is sanded down to a very smooth finish to show off its great color. At the top of the pick there are finger grips to keep the pick from slipping while strumming.
<br />
<br />Makes for the perfect gift for any music lover or guitar player.
<br />
<br />Difference between plastic and wood picks: wood is much stiffer and has little to no flexibility, however it offers a much clearer and stronger strum. You'll notice that it doesn't have that plastic plucking sound that most plastic picks have as the pick catches on every string.
