I have one, old Dobro branded clear thumb pick in my odds-n-ends box. PM your mailing address and I'll send it to you.

Jay Dee, I have a question. Does the scraping sound occur only after putting on new strings? I used to get that sound on my banjo when I used plastic picks. Had to rub the thumb pick on my leather strap to keep that sound from happening. Hercos don't seem to do it as much.
