Abstract
An instrument pick includes a pick body. The pick body includes a front surface, a back surface opposite the front surface, and a side surface formed around a perimeter of the pick body between the front surface and the back surface. The pick body is shaped to form a top side at a top portion of the pick body and a playing portion at a bottom portion of the pick body which contacts the strings of an instrument during use. The instrument pick also includes at least one fin extending from the front surface at an angle relative to a plane of the front surface.

An instrument pick, comprising:
- a pick body comprising:
- a front surface,
- a back surface opposite the front surface, and
- a side surface formed around a perimeter of the pick body between the front surface and the back surface, wherein the pick body is shaped to form a top side at a top portion of the pick body and a playing portion at a bottom portion of the pick body which contacts the strings of an instrument during use;
- and
- at least one fin extending from the front surface at an angle relative to a plane of the front surface.
An instrument pick, comprising:
- a pick body comprising:
- a front surface,
- a back surface opposite the front surface,
- a top side positioned at a top portion of the pick body,
- a bottom side positioned at a bottom portion of the pick body opposite the top side, wherein the bottom side is positioned with a playing portion that contacts strings of an instrument during use,
- a first lateral side extending between a first end of the top side and a first end of the bottom side, wherein the first lateral side extends from the top side at an angle less than 90 degrees between the top side and the first lateral side, and
- a second lateral side extending between a second end of the top side and a second end of the bottom side, wherein the second lateral side extends from the top side at an angle less than 90 degrees between the top side and the second lateral side and the bottom side has an approximately linear length greater than 3.5 millimeters between the first lateral side and the second lateral side.
An instrument pick, comprising:
- a pick body comprising:
- a front surface,
- a back surface opposite the front surface,
- a top side positioned at a top portion of the pick body,
- a first lateral side coupled to a first end of the top side having a first section with a first positive degree of curvature and a second section with a second negative degree of curvature, and
- a second lateral side coupled to a second end of the top side and having a third positive degree of curvature, wherein
- the first lateral side and the second lateral side converge to form a tip within a playing portion that contacts strings of an instrument during use, and
- the playing portion is positioned offset from a center line of the pick body.
