Very excited to announce release of the Amar Alhoch Signature plectrum.  After 3 years of collaboration and representing Purple Plectrums, during this time he graced my Apollo pick and displayed his technical skills with some seriously blistering shredding, it was time to make him a special, tailored pick to his exact specifications.  Apollo being my smallest pick at 22x25mm, Amar felt he preferred a pick that was slightly wider for more thumb space but shorter for less deflection.  The result is a new square shape design with 23.5x23.5mm dimensions and 5.5-6mm thickness.  Each pick is handcrafted from the versatile thermoplastic UHMW-PE known for its warm tone and long life.  Be a shred monster like Amar 🎸🤘

"It was truly an honor working with Purple Plectrums over the course of five months designing my signature pick. Every detail on this pick is there for a reason bringing you what might very well be the most stable guitar pick on the market. The concept is simple! More stability = lighter grip = lower tension = more speed. And of course, no compromise! Speed without sacrificing tone, articulation, or dynamics, making this pick suitable for everything from shred to heavy riffs as well as more dynamic lower gain styles of playing.

The idea wasn't to put my name on a pick that is already there. It was about designing something that didn't exist; something unique... something special."

"Innovation never stops so neither will we. I plan to continue working closely with Purple Plectrums in the evolotion of my signature pick."

What can't be said about the Amar Alhoch Signature plectrum? Kori's take on the classic "baseball diamond" is nothing short of genius. The shape might be familiar to those who follow Ritchie Blackmore. However; the improved ergonomics and the extra heft by way of thickness open up a whole new world. This beautiful plectrum sits as one of the most comfortable picks that I own. It makes strumming or lead lines effortless. Even if you own other Purple Plectrum picks, this one really does stand out. Mine is in my favorite color and I am truly grateful to be its owner.

This is probably my favorite pick that I own. I love the string glide you get with UHMW-PE. My first in this material was the Apollo by Purple. I initially bought that after seeing an Amar Alhoch YouTube short on thicker picks. I was so eager to try, I ran straight to Purple's site and bought the Apollo without taking enough time to peruse all products. Totally missed this. The Apollo ended up being incredible and I wanted more of this fun so once I did find this Alhoch signature model, well of course I had to order it. It is also incredible. A bit thinner than my Apollo for yet another option for me as I learn more about what I like. Same great string feel. I'll be buying more of these. I'm hoping to see them available in more colors at some point. Very happy with product performance and this purchase. Thanks, Purple!
