Inspired by the grandeur of ancient Greek architecture, our Parthenon Collection of guitar picks embodies the fusion of classical aesthetics and contemporary performance.
These are for tone chasers and tone sculptors—writers, studio players, and anyone who wants a clean, precise tool rather than a flashy showpiece.
Just as the Parthenon stands as a testament to measured design, these picks are built for clarity, balance, and control more than brute force.
The Art of Sonic Sculpture
Each guitar pick in the Parthenon Collection is crafted from our proprietary faux ivory material, formulated to capture the tonal magic of traditional bone and ivory picks without their drawbacks.
This composition delivers a bright, punchy response with enhanced high-end presence, helping your guitar sit clearly in a mix.
The picks are dense, and their satin-finished bevels give a slight, violin-like drag across the strings—enough resistance to shape the note without ever feeling gritty.
Versatility in Form & Function
The Parthenon Collection features a range of familiar, more traditional shapes and thicknesses, from roughly 4mm down to about 2.5mm. That lets you pick the exact balance of heft and precision you want, whether you’re tracking tight studio rhythms or working through detailed lead lines.
They can absolutely pull “Gladiator duty” when needed, taking live sets and louder rehearsals in stride. But they really earn their keep on takes where clarity, note separation, and punch matter more than sheer stage abuse.
A Legacy of Quality
More than disposable tools, each Parthenon plectrum is a quietly serious piece of craft. Coarse grip textures paired with a deep Iron Age logo engraving keep the pick locked in place, even during longer sessions.
The carefully cut edges and controlled bevels give a consistent release, so once you’ve dialed in your touch, the pick gets out of the way and lets your playing speak.
If you’re after a comfortable, utilitarian workhorse with a bit of classical backbone—and you care more about how your notes land than how wild your pick looks—this is your lane.
