@annaandmilovan. "clicking" does occur with thumb/fingerpicks, at times. It's not really a matter of blade length but how hard you dig in. I'm a bit heavy handed. I haven't listened too closely so not 100% sure if it's the thumbpick, but probably is.

Tom, a great lesson on my favorite slide guitar player. Love your guitar, love your shirt... One question: In Part 2 of 2, I hear a "clicking" sound due to, I believe, your thumbpick - is the blade of your thumbpick too long?
