liken' the t-pick!

yeah, the thumbpick is working well so far.  feels good -- no thumb joint pain yet.  and no new pains!  also it sounds good with the strings.  it's heavy!  maybe heavier than most jazz picks!  so a good tone emerges.  feels good that it stays on with no effort.  why don't more guitarists use them as picks? will something else come up to rain on my parade?  new pains?  weird side effects?  who knows!  for now I like it, dude!

Maybe the only downside is on an upward pick there is a chance to get the pick caught on the string, depending on the angle.  Hasn't bothered me so far.  I even did my scale triplet practice with the t-pick and had now problems like that.
