These picks are for life. They are hard wearing and can be handed down like a family heirloom.

The first and foremost feature of the stone guitar pick is its incredible tone quality and the full resonance it gives to your instruments voice. To understand the difference between stone and plastic it's important to know that stringed instruments have an aspect of percussion to them.

The "Plectrum" or "Pick" is used to "strike" the strings, much the way that a hammer strikes a bell. Could you imagine striking a bell with a plastic hammer? Yet we use various types of plastic to strike the strings of our instruments never thinking of how it effects their voices.

Plastic dampens and absorbs the tonal potential of the strings and even makes a flicking clicking noise that we just get used to. Stone is harder than the metal of the strings and doesn't absorb any of the initial impact of your attack. Part of the Stone Pick experience is the absence of plastic, and the completion of our instrument's voice.

"I play guitar with The Black Crowes. We’re recording and filming our new double live album and movie at Levon Helm’s barn. I gave your picks to the guys and we’re all using them! We love them! They sound so good. There is no comparison to plastic, it's amazing. The stone picks appeal to the aesthetic that I apply to my music and live my life according to. The sound of the stone pick's attack is amazing on electric and acoustic instruments. They are superior to plastic plectrums in every way. I haven't used them on tour yet but I will be! I'm hooked."
