LAMINATED PLECTRUM FOR CHORDOPHONE INSTRUMENT

摘要

A pick for use with a musical instrument is provided, the pick comprising at least three layers, an upper layer having a long vector, a lower layer having a long vector and an amorphous layer, the long vectors aligned with a longitudinal axis of the pick, the upper layer and the lower layer sandwiching and adhered to the amorphous layer to provide a flexible, resilient pick. The pick may have two pick points, normal to one another. As the direction of the long vector controls the feel of the pick, the first pick point will be more rigid and the second pick point will be more flexible. This also causes the first pick point to feel thicker and the second pick point to feel thinner, despite being substantially the same thickness. These features manifest themselves as differences in tone and attack.
