Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A dozen very thin nylon picks. Built for strummers who want the pick to flex and stay quiet in the mix, not for lead playing.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Acoustic rhythm and open-chord strumming
  • Softer dynamics behind a singer
  • Players whose hands cramp gripping a stiff pick

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Single-note lead lines needing attack and control
  • Heavy picking or aggressive downstrokes on electric
  • Anyone who wants a bright, sharp pick sound

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 01

.38 mm gauge

Very thin. The pick bends across the strings, softening attack and evening out strums, but it gives up definition on single notes.

Detail 02

Nylon material

Warmer and quieter than celluloid, with a duller click on string contact. Bends before it breaks.

Detail 03

Standard shape

The familiar wide triangle with a rounded tip — plenty of grip surface, easy to find when you fumble it mid-song.

Detail 04

Sold as a dozen

Thin nylon wears and gets lost fast, so buying twelve at once is realistic rather than excessive.

Detail 05

White

Easy to spot on a dark stage floor or inside a soundhole.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01If you have never used .38 mm, it will feel floppy compared to a medium
  2. 02Nylon gets slippery with sweaty hands — no grip texture on this one
  3. 03Thin picks wear down at the tip and eventually go fuzzy

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is .38 mm too thin for me?

If you mostly strum chords, no — the flex is the point. If you play single-note lines or pick hard, go heavier.

02How many picks come in the pack?

One dozen, twelve picks.

03Nylon or celluloid?

Nylon is warmer, quieter against the string and flexes rather than snaps. Celluloid is brighter with a sharper click.

04Can I use these on bass?

You can, but .38 mm nylon will fold against heavy bass strings. Bass players who use picks generally want something much stiffer.
