Detail 01
1.0 mm
Firm with a small amount of flex. Stiff enough for clean single notes, still forgiving across a full chord strum.

D'Andrea358 Small Delrex Delrin Guitar Picks Teardrop - One Dozen Blue 1.0 mm
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dozen 1.0 mm Delrin picks in a small teardrop shape. Medium-stiff and grippy, aimed at players who want precision over strum flex.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Single-note lines and riffs where you want a firm tip
- Players whose fingers slip on glossy celluloid picks
- Electric rhythm work needing a defined attack
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Loose acoustic strumming that wants a pick with give
- Players who like a large pick body to grip
- Anyone chasing the warm click of celluloid
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
Delrin (acetal)
Matte, slightly chalky surface that grips sweaty fingers. Wears very slowly and sounds a bit brighter and drier than celluloid.
Detail 03
Small teardrop shape
Less pick sticking out past your fingers, so your hand sits closer to the strings for more control and less flapping.
Detail 04
One dozen
Twelve identical picks, so replacing a lost one does not change your feel mid-set.
Detail 05
Blue color coding
The color marks the 1.0 mm gauge, so you can grab the right thickness out of a mixed pick jar by sight.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Small teardrop feels cramped if you are used to a standard 351
- 02No grip hole or texture beyond the natural matte Delrin surface
- 031.0 mm is a middle gauge; go thicker for metal lead work
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between Delrin and celluloid?
Delrin is matte and grippy, lasts much longer, and sounds a touch brighter and drier. Celluloid is glossy, slicker in the hand, warmer sounding, and wears faster.
02Is 1.0 mm considered heavy?
It sits in the medium-to-heavy range. Firm enough for defined single notes, but it still flexes slightly on hard strumming.
03How does this compare to the 1.14 mm purple?
Same shape and material, just stiffer. The 1.14 mm gives less on strums and a harder, more immediate attack.
04Will these slip when my hands sweat?
Delrin holds better than glossy celluloid because the surface is matte. It has no added grip texture, so very wet hands can still slide.
