Ibanez produced the PPA16HSGDB as part of their Grip Wizard Sand Grip pick range — a short teardrop-profile polyacetal pick finished in Deep Blue, issued in sets of six at a 1.0mm thickness.
The sand grip texture on the pick face was the defining feature of this run, providing additional friction at the thumb and forefinger contact points. Polyacetal (also known as acetal resin) is a dense, rigid thermoplastic that produces a bright, consistent attack and resists wear at the tip over extended use. The short teardrop shape positions the playing tip closer to the fingers than a standard teardrop outline, giving a more controlled feel for single-note work.
Owners seeking replacements or compatible alternatives should look for short teardrop polyacetal picks in the 1.0mm range. A guitar technician or experienced player can advise on equivalent third-party options where this specific variant is no longer obtainable.
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
