V-Pick

Fat Sound offers the extremely popular V-Picks by Vinnie Smith. Each pick is made by hand in cottage industry fashion by Vinnie and his wife.

These guitar picks stay put when warm creating a pick that's stable between the fingers and hard to drop accidentally. They also won't rotate between the fingers unless you want them to. They cling just enough to the fingers to allow the rest of the muscles in your hand to relax and to form a solid connection between fingers and pick.

Made from a specially chosen grade of cast acrylic material that sounds fantastic and really adds to your overall tone while increasing speed and overall playability.

Great string bite with the correct amount of glide. A perfect balance.

These are the plectrums of choice for most of the Fat Sound staff.

From V-Pick's Website

This guitar pick is the best replacement for small jazz picks or plectrums.

It gets a crisp, bright, yet full tone with a wonderful mid-range. You'll hear the difference immediately!

This pick never moves around in your hand, it grips your fingers. No more slipping or dropping your guitar pick! This relaxes the muscles in your hand and allows freedom of movement, which helps you play faster and more accurately.

The pick is symmetrical, which gives you 3 times the wear and playability. An outstanding pick if you love a small sized guitar or mandolin pick with a point.

Laser cut the same size as a very popular and common Jazz pick @ 1.5mm thick, the Small Lite Pointed V-Pick is great for all kinds of music.

This guitar pick gives you a fatter, beefier tone, more volume and faster action over your strings. Lots of articulation, with great snap and bite. Great for both rhythm and lead playing, and also plays and sounds good with acoustic guitars.

This is a very popular guitar plectrum.

This guitar pick will actually stick to your fingers as the body heat from your fingers warm up the pick. You will not drop them, or have to readjust them while playing. These are reasons why so many guitarists are replacing their old style guitar picks with V-Picks.

This is a fantastic guitar pick and a fabulous bass guitar pick as well!

Gets that Yes, Pink Floyd, Doobie Brothers, Deep Purple type Bass sound.

The larger size allows for a bigger bevel and a lot of surface gripping area.

This is a pick that will allow you to play very light handed and yet, still sound huge!

Galo Rivera plays this pick and we are very proud of that fact. Y

ou'll experience very fast action due to the bevel. Grips your hand nicely.

Gigantic tone! That is what this pick is all about, tone. 2.75mm thick and 1 1/4" from point to point. 

A popular pick with mandolin players as well.

If you haven't yet tried V-Picks, once you do, you'll find you were leaving a lot of tone inside your instrument. You owe it to yourself to find out just how good that instrument can sound with the right equipment!

Three symmetrical corners give you three times the life, and V-Picks have a very long life.

Screamer

From V-Pick's Website

V-Picks "Screamer" picks: super nice tone enrichment, durable, and it stays in you hand, not on the floor.

This guitar pick is very, very popular! It's a fantastic pick that works for all styles. This pick will knock you out! The all-in-one V-Pick.

We recommend this plectrum as an intro to our line.

Longer bevel creates sharp attack, brighter tone & more volume.

There's some fast action in this pick!

The Screamer has very bright highs and a big low end as well. The mids are not as strong as the other V-Picks due to the bevel design, so this pick actually gives you a mid-range scoop!

Most players will really like this pick from the start. Has that wonderful gripping effect. A lot of players never get the chance to try other V-Picks after ordering this one because they are so happy with the Screamer. 2.75mm thick.

Large Light Pointed

Stu Carter, owner of Fat Sound Guitars, pick of choice:

"I love three sided triangular picks becuase now matter how I'm holding the pick.....I'm always holding the it in the correct direction and I have three sides to wear out! This pick is called a "Light", but the flex is very minimal and I prefer a pretty stiff pick for the thicker tone it provides. Nice attack and clarity. This pick is the same size and has an almost identical flex to the Red Bear 'Tortis' picks I had been using befpre giving V-Picks a try, but it's $3.95 rather than $20.00 and has a more defined, clearer tone overall with the only trade off being that for the finger adhesion properties of the acrylic, while beneficial in many ways, adds a little extra string grab, but I quickly adapted to this less slick feeling versus the Red Bear and now these are all I use."
