Here’s another cool audio idea: a newly designed guitar pick that actually creates enhanced sound waves. An invention that could revolutionize music as we know it.
As Music Radar puts it:
“The guitar pick is probably the most overlooked part of your signal chain after your choice of guitar strings, but it’s still surprising no bolder designs on he humble plectrum have ever really taken off before. Could Acoustik Attak’s Attak Piks change that?
The idea for Attack Piks was hatched when Connecticut-based bassist and Chief Product & Technology Officer Mark Labbe, along with New York-based guitarist, Chairman & CEO Michael DePietro, became disillusioned with flat pick designs.
So they came up with a way to innovate with a customised injection moulding process. Their Attak Piks feature patented raised ridge with, diamonds and other patterns on both sides of their lower tip attack zones that the company claims results in enhanced sound waves for your tone.
That’s regardless of whether you’re an electric or acoustic player, or your choice of instrument or strings. Certainly a bold claim.”
Now, I’m not very musically inclined. I’ve only attempted to play the guitar a handful of times with disastrous results each time. But even I can recognize the appeal of reinventing how an instrument is played. If there’s even a chance this could lead to new sounds, songs, styles, and other musical breakthroughs then this achievement can’t be overlooked.
Is Acoustik Attak the Greatest Idea Ever?
