Green Torlon Picks

Green Torlon is made from polyamide-imide (PAI) resin powder processed through Token's proprietary compression molding and CNC machining method. The resulting material has a unique morphology that produces exceptional volume, rich tone, and extreme wear resistance. No other pick company uses this material or process.

The molecular structure and density of Token's compression-molded PAI transmit energy to the strings more efficiently than standard pick materials. Players consistently report that Green Torlon draws out more volume and a broader spectrum of tone from their instruments than any other pick they have tried.

Yes. Green Torlon is one of the most popular Token materials among mandolin players. The exceptional volume and rich, full tone make it ideal for bluegrass jam sessions, stage performance, and any situation where projection matters. The D3-60 All-Round in Green Torlon is particularly popular with mandolin players.

Green Torlon is the most wear-resistant material in Token's lineup. It significantly outlasts both Ultem and PEEK. Players who go through standard picks quickly will notice that Green Torlon maintains its bevel shape and playing characteristics far longer than any other pick material they have used.

Players use the term 'Goldilocks tone' because Green Torlon hits a sweet spot that is not too bright, not too dark, but rich and full across the entire frequency range. It delivers volume and warmth simultaneously, which is unusual for pick materials. Many players describe hearing new overtones and harmonics from their instruments with Green Torlon.

Green Torlon picks cost $35 compared to $22 for Amber and $26 for Tan because the raw PAI material is significantly more expensive than PEI or PEEK, and Token's proprietary compression molding process adds manufacturing complexity. The result is a pick with tonal and durability characteristics that no other material can replicate.
