Rev up your Autograph with Custom Signature Picks!
One of the more popular ideas for custom guitar picks from Clayton is to put your signature on the pick as the design or a portion of the design. Shown here are several examples of customers who liked this idea. This is a great way to personalize picks and they always come out looking really nice…no matter which pick material you choose. Signature picks can work really well if you are creating custom picks for a band and would like the band logo on one side, but each individual’s name on the other side. They also are perfect gifts for [...]

Prom Picks
At Clayton, we are always trying to discover new ways in which our customers use custom picks, and also learn about what types of events that guitar picks can be used for.

Pick of the Week — Day Old Funk
For this week’s Pick of the Week we have a custom design created by the band Day Old Funk, for our white delrin picks. We like how crisp the black design looks against the bright white background of our picks. We thought that the band had a cool idea in not only including their logo, but also an image of the silhouettes of the band members. A little about the band:
Redefining the Fall River scene, “Day Old Funk” started in a basement
with its two original and [...]
The Neon Look
Today we wanted to show off a couple designs that were recently created and made on our black celluloid picks. Black celluloid is a somewhat new material for Clayton…it was added for custom design last year because we discovered that these picks can support some really nice designs, including ones with varying colors and sometimes intricate detail. Black celluloids are a glossy finish pick, and we have them available in three gauges; thin, (about .50mm) medium (about .80mm) and heavy (about 1.0mm). They can support single color white designs, or full color designs such as the ones shown below. We [...]
