Leddington Handmade Synth Shell Pick 1.5mm Triangle Lefty
Bekend om zijn warme, zachte en toch glazige tonen, was tortoise een zeer gewenst materiaal bij de vervaardiging van plectrums. Vanwege zijn populariteit in andere, meer uitputtende industrieën, werd de karetschildpad, de soort waarvan tortoiseproducten werden gemaakt, echter op de rand van uitsterven gebracht totdat in 1973 terecht een wereldwijd verbod werd uitgevaardigd.
Hoewel deze plectrums eruit kunnen zien en aanvoelen als echt tortoise, zijn ze in feite handgemaakt van een synthetisch materiaal dat bekend staat als caseïne (ook bekend als galalith of melksteen), een vroeg plastic dat is afgeleid van eiwitten die in melk worden aangetroffen.
Er is veel onderzoek en testen gedaan bij de ontwikkeling van dit product en je kunt er zeker van zijn dat niets zo dicht bij het repliceren van de organische look, het gevoel en de toon van echte tortoise komt. Linkshandig.
Noted for its warm, soft and yet glassy tones, tortoiseshell was a highly desired material in the manufacture of guitar picks. However, due to its popularity in other more exhaustive industries, the Hawksbill Turtle, the species from which tortoiseshell products were made, was brought to the brink of extinction until a worldwide ban was rightly enacted in 1973.
Whilst these picks may look and feel like genuine tortoiseshell, they are in fact handmade from a synthetic material known as casein (also known as galalith or milk-stone), an early plastic derived from proteins found in milk.
Much research and testing has been done in the developing of this product and you can rest assured that nothing comes as close to replicating the organic look, feel and tone of real tortoiseshell. Lefthanded
