Mix tones and mixed gauges to try a little bit of everything.
The type of pick you use affects the tone you create.
They come in a variety of gauges: 0.68mm, 0.88mm, and 1.00mm thickness.
They also come in various tones: Bright (white color), Warm (vintage cream color), and Deep (gray color).
The type of pick you use affects the tone you create. That's why we created TUSQ picks, the world's first and only pick with a built-in tone. By formulating various composite materials, we created a whole new class of picks with highly resonant characteristics that produce three distinctive tones: Bright, Warm, and Deep.
TUSQ picks have a high stiffness-to-thickness ratio, like real tortoise shells but with harmonic content, only TUSQ can deliver. Experience a smooth, balanced feel and a clean articulate attack. With TUSQ in your pick, a great tone is in your hands. Now you can choose your gauge, your shape, and now your tone.
To hear the difference in tone please click here to open TUSQ Picks Brand Page (in a new tab).
TUSQ nuts have a rich tone without the inconsistency found in ivory, bone, and other natural materials. Bone and ivory have hard and soft spots (grain) throughout each piece, hampering the consistent transfer of vibrations to the guitar top. TUSQ nuts are designed to transfer the right frequencies more efficiently from the string to the guitar body.
Best for Acoustic Guitars.
TUSQ XL and Black TUSQ XL
TUSQ XL and Black TUSQ XL nuts are designed to boost guitar tone and performance. These precision-engineered nuts are made with a specially formulated material that couples the strings' vibrations to the neck and brings out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. It is based on the highly resonant TUSQ man-made ivory but is permanently lubricated to improve the tuning performance of the guitar.
Best for Electric Guitars and BASS.

The different TUSQ picks do produce different tones on my acoustic guitar
Very interesting. Different style and material TUSQ picks do produce different tones. Some of the picks make my high E string a bit out of tune, so I have to adjust slightly the tuning to accommodate. But I really like the different tones.
