1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A dozen 1.2 mm Gel picks. Extra-heavy gauge for players who want a rigid pick and don't want to reorder for a while.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Heavy-handed players who bend thinner picks out of shape
- Bass or baritone players needing stiffness against thick strings
- Keeping a full year of spares in one purchase
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Light strummers who want the pick to flex on chords
- Acoustic players after a soft, blended strum
- Anyone still figuring out what gauge they like
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
Gel material
Molded plastic with a slightly softer surface feel than a hard pick, which takes a little edge off the attack.
Detail 03
1 dozen
Twelve picks. Enough to seed every case, bag, and pedalboard and still lose a few.
Detail 04
Yellow
Visible on dark stages and easy to find when dropped.
Detail 05
Standard pick shape
Fits any standard pick holder, and the rounded tip stays forgiving on strumming despite the thickness.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Extra heavy is a big jump if you currently play 0.7 mm or thinner
- 02Thick picks can feel harsh on light-gauge acoustic strings
- 03No holder or case included; these ship loose
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is 1.2 mm good for beginners?
It's stiffer than most beginners want. A 0.7–0.88 mm pick forgives inconsistent picking better while you build technique.
02How many picks is a dozen?
Twelve.
03Will these work for bass?
Yes. The rigidity suits heavy bass strings, which push thinner picks around.
04Are Gel picks grippy?
The surface has more texture than a polished hard pick, but sweaty hands can still cause slipping.
