  • @CorneliusMarc Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. Rather expensive but, I really like the Sammy Shelor picks for playing at home. During performances or while recording, I always use plastic picks. Because they fit tight, they stay on and the longer blades let me dig in deeper to out a big fat tone. But like I tell my students, picks are relatively inexpensive, try different brands, use what feels and works best. Thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays. Enjoy.

  • I like"propiks" much more comfortable and they grip good. KeniLee, love your smooth style. You're an inspiration.

  • @Aspley1990 Yes, it can be frustrating learning to use them. To make the transistion easier, practice scales or a very easy song you can normally play well. Plastic picks stays on better and have longer blades making it easier to get in. Metal is more comfortable, but tend to slide off over time. Also, metal is a little more noisey on the string. Some players (Earl Scruggs) like to bend the blades to get a different attack angle. Experiment. Enjoy.
