Plastic was a fantastic invention. Thousands of things could be mass produced quickly and cheaply which made them readily available to everyone. Odds are though, if you can make it in wood it will probably do its job better and it will definitely look better. Take the guitar pick for instance. Yeah, you can get thousands of them produced with cool logos for next to nothing, but picks have one specific purpose–making music. Wood has a more natural quality, its own tone and a certain flavor that makes it more appealing for certain types of music. If you happen to be a guitar player, or know someone who is, upgrade to these wood guitar picks made of six different types of wood for a whole new musical experience.
