I tried using a thumb pick when I took up the steel guitar a while back and didn't like it. I like to be able to feel the strings. They make finger picks that have holes in them so that your fingers actually touch the strings through the holes. That may end up being a partial solution but no such thing is available for the thumb as far as I know.


You may be thinking of Alaska Piks, but they do work on the thumb. You actually do need a short nail to make them secure. I never could get used to them. An ordinary thumbpick, however, came fairly easily.

No, the one in the picture is from Propik but those Alaska picks could work too.
