Ernie Ball Prodigy Guitar Picks - Teardrop 1.5mm Black 6 Pack - P09330
Ernie Ball Prodigy Guitar Picks – Teardrop 1.5mm Black 6 Pack – P09330
The Teardrop is the narrowest, most compact shape in the Prodigy line — a small body that tapers quickly to the sharp point, with the same machined bevel found across the series. At 1.5mm in Delrin, it keeps a touch of flex while still holding its edge far longer than a soft celluloid pick.
It suits players who pick close to the tip and like minimal pick showing beyond their fingers — a common preference for fast lead work and intricate picking patterns. If you already favor a jazz-style or teardrop shape and want a sharper point and more durability than a typical celluloid pick, this is a straightforward step up.
Key Features
Compact Teardrop Shape
A narrow, tapered body gives you a small contact patch and less pick showing beyond your fingers.
Machined Beveled Edge
The bevel is cut in at the factory, so the pick moves across the string with less drag right away.
Sharp Point Tip
The tapered point keeps note attack clean and defined, especially on faster passages.
1.5mm Medium-Heavy Gauge
A gauge with a bit of flex compared to the 2.0mm Prodigy picks, comfortable across rhythm and lead work.
Non-Slip Matte Surface
The matte finish keeps the small body from slipping between your fingers as your hands warm up.
Six Picks in Black
Six matching picks per pack, in a black finish that's easy to spot against a light-colored pickguard.
Care Tip: Because the Teardrop's contact patch is small, hold it a touch closer to the tip than you would a standard pick — too far back and the narrow body can rotate in your fingers on a hard downstroke. Keep a few spares clipped or pocketed separately, since a small pick is the easiest shape to lose in a gig bag.
