Fingerpicks for fat fingers?

Post by Mike James »

Newbie here trying to find comfortable fingerpicks for PSG!

No problem with banjos or 6-strings, but after I bend the large fingerpicks way back to the right attack angle for PSG, there's not much room left over and the band comes around my fingernails. Not very comfortable.

I've tried the largest Nationals, JFs and others.

Am I expecting too much? Or is this this just the way it is?

Hey thanks CrowBear.

I sent Doyle a PM. We'll see if he can fix me up.
