Picks
Gypsy jazz players favor thick picks, as do most mandolin players. Traditional picks were of tortoise, bone, horn, and exotic wood. They’ re around 3 mm thick. The tips are somewhat more rounded than modern picks. The edges are asymmetrically beveled to aid clean attack on both up and down strokes. Most modern picks are made of plastic, but horn picks are available. Pick choice depends on many things. What type of guitar, what strings, lead or rhythm, and other preferences govern the optimum choice. We are often out of particular models - call for availability!
