Small and Pointy

Thick Body, Thin Beveled Tip

Although ChickenPicks are considerably thicker than standard guitar picks, the beveled edges create a relatively thin contact point at the tip. Therefore, the string does not have to travel across the full thickness of the pick. This can make the pick feel surprisingly fast and responsive, while producing a snappy, articulate attack rather than a dull one. At the same time, the thicker body provides mass, rigidity and stability. In contrast, a thick pick without a well-designed bevel may present a broader edge to the string, potentially creating a rounder, less immediate attack. This balance is an important part of the ChickenPicks design.
