| If the rubber coating is just on the part that goes around your finger, you can to that to any finger pick. Get a can of the stuff that you use to coat tool handles with and just dip that part of the pick in there and let it cure. I tried it once, didn't like it tho. YMMV |

FWIW
I have seen finger picks with a short length of heat-shrink tubing on each wrap.
Seems easy to do. One trip to the RadioShack, cut and shrink to fit. |

| Get a little Rosin that Fiddle players use and rub your fingers with it before you put your picks on. Jim |

Bo,
Yes, but isn't it kind of hard to play with a straight jacket on? |
