Jim Dunlop Herco Flat Thumbpick Guitar Picks 4 for $4.95star rating 3JonathanAugust 21, 2011I love the concept of this pick because I do mostly fingerstyle but sometimes switch to flat picking in the same song and a traditional thumb pick makes that difficult. So being able to do fingerstyle and then switch to flat picking with a pick made for that style is a good idea. Obviously, though a true thumb pick is best for thumb picking and a flat pick is best for flat picking so a compromise is to be expected. The pick for flat picking feels good. I purchased the medium guage as that is what I like for flat picking. The hardest thing to find in a good thumb pick is one that fits well and this one does not fit well. The curl of the pick is not big enough so it doesn't fully wrap my thumb but instead digs in. And the medium guage is carried over into the thumb wrap and thus feels too light and loose. A loose thumb pick is not going to work. I won't use this pick for everything but will use it for the songs where I absolutely need to do both fingerstyle and flat picking in the same song.
