Detail 01
.38 mm thickness
Very flexible. Bends across the strings instead of pushing through, which evens out strum volume and softens attack.

1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Thin .38 mm acetal picks in a dozen pack, sized small teardrop. For strummers who want flex and a compact grip.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic strumming where you want the pick to give
- Players who prefer a smaller pick between thumb and finger
- Keeping a cheap dozen stashed in cases and pockets
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Lead players who need a stiff pick for fast single notes
- Anyone who digs in hard — .38 mm folds under attack
- Players with large hands who lose small picks in their grip
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Acetal material
Stiffer-feeling plastic than celluloid at the same gauge, with a slick surface and a fairly bright click on the string.
Detail 03
Small teardrop shape
Less material to hold. Tucks tighter into the fingers, and the smaller tip gives a more precise point of contact.
Detail 04
1 dozen quantity
Twelve picks. Enough to lose some without thinking about it, and to keep a consistent feel across guitars and gig bags.
Detail 05
White
Easy to spot on a dark stage floor or inside a soundhole, harder to see against a light-colored pickguard.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01All twelve are the same .38 mm gauge — no assortment of thicknesses
- 02Thin picks wear at the tip faster than heavy ones
- 03If you are unsure of gauge, .38 mm is at the flexible end
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is .38 mm too thin for electric guitar?
It works, but it flexes a lot. Electric lead and palm-muted rhythm usually want something heavier. For light electric strumming it is fine.
02How many picks do I get?
One dozen — twelve picks, all .38 mm, all the same small teardrop shape.
03How is small teardrop different from a standard pick?
It has the same general outline but less surface area, so there is less to grip and a smaller tip meeting the string.
04Will these work on bass?
At .38 mm they will flex heavily against bass strings and give a soft, thin attack. Most pick bassists use a much heavier gauge.
