Unique handcrafted guitar pick in shape of teardrop made of high performance peek and polycarbonate material - Triple Tear PC

Handmade guitar pick. It consists of three layers. Two external Polycarbonate and one internal black or beige peek high tech plastic. There is a logo between the layers. A very comfortable, extremely durable and good sounding gift for a guitarist.

The Polycarbonate-PEEK hybrid is the perfect solution for versatile guitarists who value:
- **PEEK precision** in solos and fast techniques,
- **Polycarbonate warmth and comfort** in rhythm playing,
- **Indestructibility** – a combination of impact and abrasion resistance.

**Application:**
- Rock, metal, fusion, fingerstyle – wherever both aggression and nuance count,
- Long studio sessions – thanks to ergonomics and vibration reduction.

Shape: Tear
Dimensions: Length: 37mm, Width: 27mm,

Handcrafted (sawn, carved, shaped and polished) using only workshop power tools.

The plectrum is non-standard thickness for a reason. Namely, a large thickness minimizes movement, increases precision, strength and speed. Therefore playing the guitar requires less effort, which is a relief for the player. As a result, the player will have fewer muscle cramps and tensions, and more comfortable playing.

**1. Material properties:**

**Polycarbonate (PC):**
- **High impact thermoplastic** – impact and scratch resistant, lightweight (density 1.2 g/cm³).
- Gives the sound a warm and less aggressive attack compared to harder materials.
- Characterized by a smooth surface and moderate stiffness.

**PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone):**
- **Engineering thermoplastic** with extreme stiffness, resistance to abrasion and temperatures up to 250°C.
- Provides precise attack, neutral tone and expressive transients.

**2. Effects on sound:**

- **Outer layers (polycarbonate):**
- They dampen the metallic sharpness of PEEK, adding warmth and a soft envelope to the sound.
- They emphasize the midrange and bass, while maintaining the clarity of the highs.

- **Core (PEEK):**
- Provides crystalline precision and fast attack, typical of technical techniques (shredding, tapping).
- Stabilizes dynamics, eliminating the "smearing" of sound during fast passages.

- **Final effect:** Balanced sound - a combination of the organic warmth of polycarbonate with the analytical precision of PEEK.

**3. Durability and comfort:**

- **Wear resistance:**
- PEEK in the core protects against deformation and cracks, even during aggressive play.
- Polycarbonate protects the surface from scratches and absorbs impacts.

- **Ergonomics:**
- The smoothness of polycarbonate provides a comfortable grip, and the rigidity of PEEK eliminates uncontrolled bending.
- Vibration reduction thanks to polycarbonate increases comfort during long sessions.

**4. Playability:** ,

- **Sztywność vs. elastyczność:**
- Sztywny rdzeń PEEK utrzymuje precyzję w technikach leadowych, podczas gdy poliwęglan dodaje minimalną giętkość, ułatwiającą strumming i płynne przejścia.

- **Poślizg i kontrola:**
- Niskie tarcie poliwęglanu wspiera płynne przesuwanie się po strunach, a PEEK zapewnia stabilność w szybkich arpeggiach.

This is a plectrum for those who don't want to choose between precision and comfort - the hybrid combines the best of both worlds.

If you haven't found in my offer the plectrum you are looking for and you need a guitar pick of an unusual shape, size and thickness, don't hesitate to ask. I am open to custom orders :)

Thank you for stepping by.
