Teardrop Guitar Pick: Torlon Ultem Hybrid Plectrum

Exclusive three-layer guitar pick made of high quality Torlon and Ultem plastic. Two external Ultem layers and one internal Torlon core, with a logo between the layers. A very comfortable, extremely durable and great-sounding guitar plectrum.

~ Important! The price is for a single piece ~

Shape & Dimensions

Teardrop
Length: 37mm, Width: 26mm, Thickness: 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm or 10mm

Craftsmanship

Handcrafted — sawn, carved, shaped and polished using workshop power tools.

The non-standard thickness minimizes movement, increases precision, strength and speed. Playing requires less effort, reducing muscle cramps and tension for more comfortable long sessions.

Material Properties

Ultem (PEI – Polyetherimide):

• High thermal (up to 210°C) and chemical resistance
• Moderate vibration absorption — introduces warmth and organic character of sound
• Lightweight (density ~1.27 g/cm³) despite thickness

Torlon (PAI – Polyamide-imide):

• Ultra-durable polymer with the highest mechanical and thermal resistance (up to 270°C)
• Rigidity with controlled vibration absorption — reduces sharpness while maintaining precision
• Resistant to creep and deformation under load

Sound Characteristics

Outer layers (Ultem):

• Dampens metallic sharpness, introducing midrange warmth and bass depth
• Gives the sound a soft envelope, characteristic of materials with good vibration absorption

Core (Torlon):

• Stabilizes the sound, emphasizing precise attack and high-frequency detail
• Prevents the sound from "smearing" in fast passages

Final effect: rich, balanced sound — the organic warmth of Ultem with the precision of Torlon, ideal for techniques combining expression and control.

Durability & Ergonomics

• Torlon and Ultem create an indestructible system — resistant to cracks, abrasion and deformation
• Exceptional durability even during aggressive play
• Massive construction dedicated to players who prefer heavy, stable plectrums

Playability

• Dominant Torlon stiffness provides precision in lead techniques (shredding, tapping)
• Ultem adds natural flexibility in the strike
• Ultem minimizes friction for fast glide over the strings
• Torlon stabilizes the sound, reducing unwanted noise

Summary

The Ultem-Torlon hybrid is an elite tool for virtuosos that combines the organic warmth of Ultem with the indestructibility and precision of Torlon. Rich, complex sound — ideal for music that requires both technique and expression.

Best for: progressive metal, jazz fusion, experimental rock, long studio sessions — where control over dynamics and nuance counts.

A plectrum for sound explorers who treat playing as an art of engineering — where every detail matters, and the tool is as unique as the music.
