Patented D-GriP non-slip surface Picks D-GriP from the Czech manufacturer Janicek Picks are known for their specially developed surface, which significantly distinguishes their grip from regular smooth nylon picks. The "cat tongue" texture consists of tiny protrusions that create a non-slip surface. The manufacturer uses a special surface molding technology that is patent-protected. When playing, this texture helps limit the rotation and shifting of the pick between the thumb and index finger. This is especially advantageous during faster passages, extended playing sessions, or situations when the player's hands get sweaty. Thickness 1.30 mm – strength and tone control Thicker pick 1.30 mm provides less flexibility compared to thin models. This allows the player to control the pick's contact with the string and each stroke more precisely. This thickness is especially suitable for: Precise plucking of individual notes. Fast guitar solos. Rock and metal riffs. Alternate picking. Technical play on the electric guitar. Playing the bass guitar with a pick. With gentle chord accompaniment, some players may prefer thinner and more flexible picks. However, the choice of thickness always depends on individual technique and musical style. Traditional shape Standard 351 The model uses standard guitar shape 351, which is one of the most common pick shapes. The rounded top provides a comfortable surface to hold, while the narrower tip allows for controlled contact with the strings. Thanks to its universal shape, the pick can be used with both electric and acoustic guitars, as well as other compatible string instruments. Nylon material and finished edges The pick is made of nylon, which is a popular material for making guitar picks. It offers a combination of durability, a certain degree of flexibility, and a pleasant feel against the fingers. The manufacturer also pays attention to precise shaping and finishing of the edges, which affect the smooth movement of the pick across the strings. At a thickness of 1.30 mm, the pick has a firmer character, which will be appreciated by guitarists seeking precise response when striking the strings.
