Detail 01
.50 mm thickness
Thin and flexible. Gives way against the strings, so strums even out and single notes lose punch.

D'AndreaShell Celluloid 355 Triangle Picks - One Dozen Red .50 mm
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dozen thin celluloid triangle picks. For strummers who want a flexible pick with three usable playing corners per pick.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic strumming where a thin pick keeps chords even
- Players who wear out pick tips fast and rotate corners
- Mandolin and ukulele players who prefer a wide grip
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Fast single-note lead playing — .50 mm flexes too much
- Heavy picking on electric where you want attack and control
- Players who dislike the click celluloid makes on strings
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 (355) shape
Three identical corners. Rotate to a fresh tip when one wears down, so a pick lasts about three times longer.
Detail 03
Celluloid material
Slick and glossy. Warmer, softer attack than nylon or Delrin, but it gets slippery with sweaty hands.
Detail 04
Large triangle body
More surface to hold than a teardrop. Easier to grip if you have big hands or drop small picks.
Detail 05
One dozen per pack
Twelve picks. Enough to leave some in a case, a gig bag, and a couple of pockets.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Celluloid has no grip texture — sweaty hands will slip on the glossy face
- 02Thin picks wear at the tip and eventually crack; treat these as consumables
- 03The triangle body is wide; it feels bulky if you normally play standard teardrops
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is .50 mm too thin for electric guitar?
For strumming it works. For lead lines and palm-muted riffs it flexes too much and you lose attack. Look at a heavier gauge for electric lead work.
02Are all three corners playable?
Yes. The 355 triangle is symmetrical, so all three tips are the same shape. Rotate as each corner wears.
03Does the red color mean anything?
No. Color is cosmetic here. The thickness, .50 mm, is what determines how the pick plays.
04Will these work on mandolin or ukulele?
Yes. The wide triangle body suits mandolin, and .50 mm is soft enough for ukulele strumming without snagging nylon strings.
