What is a "pick"?
A pick is a small, flat tool used to pluck or strum the strings of stringed instruments like guitars, mandolins, and basses. Picks are usually made of materials like plastic, metal, or nylon and come in various shapes, sizes, and thicknesses. Using a pick helps to produce a clear, consistent sound and can influence the tone and playability of the instrument. It is held between the thumb and fingers and used to strike the strings.
