Ultimate Ultem
One of the pick materials that we use here at Steve Clayton is called Ultem, and it is often overlooked when designing custom picks. While the Ultem picks are slightly more limited in the area of design because they can only support three different colors, they are appreciated for their durability and strong playing quality. When designing Ultem picks, users of our custom site may submit any design that contains black, brown, and/or red colors. These three colors can make for an appealing combination against the light tan color of the picks. The result is a classic, sometimes rustic appearance. We have received feedback from many people who say that they are highly satisfied with these picks, both for their usability and long-lasting designs. The Artisan Guitar pick shown here is a perfect example of a strong design for the Ultem picks because of the rich brown color and the smooth, distinct lines. These picks are a great choice for advertising, and graphics always look professional on the semi-tranparent material.

I would never use another pick now!!! Found these a few years back when I was playing Buddy Holly in the musical here in the UK and was amazed that a plectrum could make such a profound difference to your sound! Crisp clear and glassy, with loads of attack and volume… these are the best. Thank you Steve for an awesome (and overlooked) product. Part ot me wants to let the world know how good these are – but part of me wants to keep these babys a secret!!! Keep up the good work
