For some reason, I prefer the narrow plucker on these things. I'd like to try one of the boutique picks though, just to see what they are like. However, when struggling to pay the mortgage, it is hard to justify this sort of thing.[/url]

My choice too or Dunlop Zookies!!I use the yellow Fred Kelly's.

Probably easy to exchange picks

My first Bluechip pick was a TPR-60 for mandolin.
I decided to try a TPR-50 and didn't care for it.

The folks at Bluechip let me exchange it for another TPR-60. They would most likely do the same for the thumb picks.
They have very good customer service, IMO.

I now have two TPR-60's and one of their thumb picks (soon to buy another thumb pick).
