Angus Young’s Fender Extra Heavy Guitar Picks

According to Premier Guitar‘s 2016 Rig Rundown feature on Angus and Stevie Young, Angus prefers Fender Extra Heavy picks.

What’s unique about his choice is that he uses older models with the Fender logo burned into the pick (indented), rather than printed on. Angus reportedly favors these because the indented logo provides a grippy texture, ideal for his high-energy playing style.

If you’re looking for similar picks, you might want to try Fender 351 Shape Tortoise Shell Extra Heavy picks. While these don’t feature the indented logo, they do come with a wave grip pattern that likely offers even better grip and control.
