Introducing Zaal a design inspired by old Persian mythology from the poet  Ferdowsi’, Shahnameh (Epic of Kings).  The story of a brave warrior king abandoned as a child for perceived birth defects.  The story goes he gets adopted and raised by his own personal phoenix (Simurgh).  Later he rises from obscurity and returns to claim his kingdom and his legacy with the help of his beloved phoenix.

This model is designed on our Shield base model with 31x35 mm dimensions and 6mm thickness.  The design is cross drilled with brass tubelette inserts.  Made from the same high performance material, uhmw-pe (ultra heavy molecular weight polyethylene) with it’s super long life, warm tone and ergonomics that have come to be known for. 

Now available Little Zaal.  Same awesome design but on our smaller Apollo (Jazz III) model.

This is the one...

This might be the finest plectrum ever created. Period. Let me give a little background to substantiate such an incredible claim. I own many plectrums as I began playing guitar in 1991 and collecting guitar picks is something I began at the same time. I have played pretty much every material and UHMW-PE is the flagship material as far as I am concerned. I own many of the models that Kori has finely crafted & each Purple Plectrum has their own nuance. This one though is truly a game changer. The dimensions of the pick are in harmony with your strumming hand; think balance coupled with your grip relaxing. This combination relieves pressure from your hand while the heft of the pick keeps it in place. The metal inserts are something else entirely. Think of houses that were built of function plus art. When you hold this pick you will notice that the inserts add an extra level of grip. I never find UHMW-PE to be a material that slips, but the metal in this pick prevents any unwanted moving what-so-ever. The sound? Amazing. I play with flats and round wounds and heard zero pick chirp on either string type. Playing both electric and acoustic, the notes poured off of the fretboard. The esthetic...the Zaal is pure beauty. To say "elegant" does not do it justice. It goes beyond any preconceived idea of what a plectrum should look like and enters a realm by itself. It becomes an extension of your playing. This plectrum is above all others and I honestly cherish it.
