Stringjoy 1.5mm Longsword Acrylic Picks - 2 pack
The Stringjoy 1.5mm Longsword Acrylic Picks are for guitarists who've realised that the tiny bit of material between their fingers and strings can make a surprisingly big difference. Made from precision-polished acrylic and measuring a substantial 1.5mm thick, these premium guitar picks deliver a firm, controlled feel with excellent durability and a smooth release from the strings.
The Longsword shape is Stringjoy's larger, elongated acrylic design, giving you plenty to hold onto while maintaining a precise playing point. That makes it a cracking option for players who want the solidity of a thick pick without feeling like they're trying to play guitar with a poker chip.
Acrylic brings its own character to the party. Compared with thinner, more flexible picks, the rigid 1.5mm construction wastes very little movement flexing against the string. The result is a direct, immediate playing feel that works beautifully for articulate single-note lines, controlled rhythm playing, alternate picking and players who simply prefer a more substantial plectrum.
Stringjoy pays particular attention to the polishing and edge treatment of its acrylic picks. The smooth, carefully finished edges help the pick glide cleanly across the strings, reducing that scratchy resistance you can get from cheaper thick picks. It's a small detail until you actually play one, at which point it becomes a rather large detail.
There's also the durability factor. Acrylic is seriously tough stuff, making these picks a great choice for players who chew through conventional plectrums at an alarming rate. Instead of gradually developing an edge that resembles a tiny plastic saw blade, they're designed to provide a consistent playing surface over considerably longer periods of use.
The textured Longsword artwork also contributes some additional grip beneath the fingers, useful when gigs get hot, rehearsals run long or your hands decide that right now would be the perfect time to become inexplicably slippery.
Each pack contains two 1.5mm Longsword Acrylic Picks, making them an excellent little upgrade for electric or acoustic guitarists who fancy experimenting with a thicker premium pick.
For guitarists in Ireland looking for premium 1.5mm acrylic guitar picks, these Stringjoy Longswords are a seriously interesting alternative to conventional nylon, celluloid and Delrin-style picks.
They're called Longswords, they're incredibly tough and they come as a pair. Thankfully, that's where the medieval combat comparison ends. Please don't challenge the drummer to a duel.
