Abstract

See full text

An instrument pick has a triangular planar body; a concave thumb platform; and an index finger slot. The body has rounded vertices, including a plucking vertex. The thumb platform has concentric grooves and a thumb cavity sidewall extending between the thumb platform and the body to form a drainage cavity. The thumb platform sidewall has an opening that connects to the drainage cavity. The finger slot has a base flanked by a pair of curved side walls. The side walls taper together to form a ridge that resist the user's index finger from sliding towards the plucking vertex. The finger slot has ventilation openings that connect to the drainage cavity to collect perspiration. The pick stays in place between thumb and finger even with a loose grip and can be customized for different playing styles.
