Ares Plectrum in Ultem
Brushed finish for grip with polished tip and sides. You can specify sharp or rounded bevel or tip. Please specify your choices in the note section of your checkout otherwise default finish is my choice. Rock on…

Bigger than I thought, but, still handles comfortably on the speed picking and techy guitar playing stuff I like to do. Looks really nice 🤩
Great all around. I ordered the 6mm thickness pick with a sharp tip. Part of me would like to try a 9mm at some point, but that might be too thick (heavy) for this size of pick for me and my style of playing. Comparing it to some of the other picks I have laying around, the shape is very similar to the XL/Jumbo Jazz-III style picks, just way more comfortable to play.
It's really interesting to experiment with the different pick styles and materials offered and each one seems to have a slightly different use and tone. Ultem and PEEK feel a bit similar, but distinct. If I had to put my finger on it, the PEEK picks are a bit slicker and feel a bit more dense.
I ended up getting the brushed finish which adds a lot of grip to the pick and it doesn't feel like you'd accidentally drop it unless you maybe dunked your hands in oil first.
This is easily the most versatile ultem Purple Plectrum that I own. I have 3 different models in ultem, but this one can really be applied to any style of music or playing. I opted to have the faces brushed which adds an extra dimension to both its sleek appearance. Kori's ultem picks never slip in your hand and I can honestly say that I have never dropped a Purple Plectrum whilst playing. A day has not passed since this arriving where I haven't played it. Highly, highly recommended.
I immediately fell in love with this plectrum. Smooth control full of precision. I will be using my Slash Ultem to preach this level of comfort. I've been moving up in size to see if this is the way I wanted to go in my guitar picks. Had gotten to 2.5mm prior to my PurplePlectrum getting here in the mail. Super Stoked!
Thanks!
I may have used every pic made that I can find... hundreds in the house and hundreds given away... This is the one... I love the others he makes, but this material is what I love the most...
