The person behind the pick
A personal catalogue from the maker
Wegenpicks are made by Michel Wegen in the Netherlands, with the practical precision of a professional model maker and the direct feedback of working musicians.
How it started
A small tool, taken seriously
The pick is the first moving part between a player and an acoustic instrument. Tiny changes in thickness, profile and bevel can be felt immediately.
Michel brought model-making discipline to that problem: work accurately, listen to players and make useful variations for different hands and instruments. The result is a catalogue known especially among gypsy jazz, bluegrass, acoustic guitar and mandolin players.
The range includes established model families, left and right-handed playing edges, black and white options, and direct custom work. This site preserves that workshop character while making the choices easier to understand.
