How Much Do You Really Know about Guitar Picks in Australia?

As mentioned above, one of the factors that differentiates Southern Music Centre from other shops selling instruments, pedals, cables and guitar pickups in Adelaide is our in-depth knowledge about the craft of music. When you shop with us, you have access to a full range of information and history about the product you are seeking. Even something as seemingly simple as a guitar pick has several factors to consider, such as:

• The material: Different guitar picks are made out of different materials, which can significantly alter the feel of the pick in your hand. Most picks are plastic, with nylon, celluloid and Delrin being the most common materials. However, even across these three types of plastic picks, you will notice a difference in feel.
• Weight and design: The most noticeable variations in guitar picks, meanwhile, come with the weight/size and design. There are three main size classes for picks: light, medium and heavy. Light picks use less plastic, are thinner, weigh less and typically have a slightly wider design. They are popular for acoustic playing and are especially good for rhythm guitar/chord strumming. Light picks produce a very bright sound that some players love. Medium picks have a bit more weight to them, which provides players with a little more control than they can typically achieve with light picks. Some guitarists prefer the more substantial feel of the medium pick, which they feel is easier to hold onto (and not drop mid-strum) than a light pick. Heavy picks, finally, are thick and rigid in design and are typically less suited to chordal strumming. These are preferred for picking.
• Brand: Some guitarists have allegiances to certain brands of picks. These preferences typically build up over time, making it worthwhile to try out a few different picks as you master your guitar playing over the years.
