Jim Dunlop 9023P Shell Thumb Large Player Pack (Pack of 4)

Good, comfortable pick

It's a cool way to play some songs. I did have the put the picks in hot water first and then bent them outwards a bit since they were way too tight. Yeah it's a cool little item to use instead of a pick, but still feels much alike a pick when you get used to it.

Nice picks. I only use a thumb pick occasionally, finger picks are available. If you’re unsure what size to buy, the packs only contain two or three picks, just buy the larger or smaller size. I’m a bloke with fairly large hands but I reckon many people will get away with the large (L) size having given these thumb picks to a couple of lady ukulele players in our club.Two To get them to fit correctly, boil some water and drop the pick(s) in. Half a minute to a minute is all that’s required. Fish the pick out of the hot water with a utensil (fork or spoon) and place on a towel, tissue paper or kitchen towel so that there isn’t any water on the pick to scald you. Quickly place the pick on your thumb while it’s still hot and malleable so that it stretches to fit your thumb. As the pick cools it will stiffen and retain the shape and size of your thumb. If it needs further adjustment, repeat the hot water process as often as required.

Just wanted to be honest here, these thumb picks are great quality, and fit well, but are a little thick, and the picking protrusion is a bit long, however with a bit of sandpaper it was perfect, you can buy them in LIGHT, MEDIUM and HEAVEY I believe..Great quality but adapt the pick as you see fit. No issues apart from that.

Had one of these for a while, but thought I'd get a spare in case it got lost. Pack of 4 was easier to find and better value than singles. Ordered the pack of large, but Amazon sent a pack of mediums. Quick response to my complaint and a pack of large sent as an addition to "keep the originals" - better value than planned! FYI: for my thumb at least, the large is comfortable and the medium is usable, while the large has a deeper bite into the strings than the medium.

These are great picks but it would be useful if they actually came with instructions.To make these fit your thumb properly get two small bowls, fill one with cold water and one with hot water* (not boiling).Place the thumb pick into the bowl of hot water for around 15 seconds, fish it out with a spoon and tap off the excess water. Carefully mould the pick around your thumb and then plunge it into the bowl of cold water for about 20 seconds.* Be careful not to burn yourself on the hot water.

When I used hot water to mould the pick to a better size it did the job.

This is a pack of 4 thumb picks.I chose large and they fit me well and feel quite comfortable.They are quite thick and so they have quite a strong sound against the strings which is great on the 13s that I am usingIf you find them tight you can soak them in hot water and stretch them gently to fit.Good quality and Recommended
