D'Andrea355 Triangle Celluloid Guitar Picks One Dozen Shell Thin
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dozen thin celluloid triangle picks in a shell pattern. Large surface, three usable corners, made for players who want a big pick to hold.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players with larger hands who find standard picks cramped
- Strumming where a thin, forgiving attack suits the part
- Getting three corners of wear out of a single pick
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Fast lead work — thin celluloid flexes too much
- Players who prefer a small pick they can choke up on
- Anyone wanting the wear resistance of Delrin or nylon
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
Triangle shape
Three identical corners. When one wears down, rotate to a fresh one instead of replacing the pick.
Detail 03
Celluloid material
Slightly warmer, softer click against the string than modern plastics, with more surface grip. Wears faster than Delrin.
Detail 04
Large triangle body
More material to hold onto, which helps if standard 351-shape picks feel small or slip in your fingers.
Detail 05
One dozen
Thin celluloid cracks and wears with use, so buying by the dozen is the normal way to keep stocked.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Large triangles feel very different from standard picks — expect an adjustment
- 02Celluloid wears and can crack; thin gauges go faster
- 03Shell is a pattern, so exact markings vary pick to pick
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Are triangle picks harder to hold?
They're bigger, not harder. The extra surface suits larger hands. If you like choking up close to the tip, a standard shape gives you more control.
02How thin is thin?
Thin gauge picks flex noticeably against the strings. That works well for chord strumming and poorly for fast single-note lines, where you want a rigid tip.
03Why celluloid instead of nylon or Delrin?
Celluloid has more grip and a softer attack against the string. The tradeoff is durability — it wears down and can crack sooner than modern plastics.
04Can I use all three corners?
Yes. That's the point of the triangle. Rotate as each corner wears, which effectively extends the life of every pick in the pack.
