There is a problem with the Newman Picks.
They last forever.You will not have to replace them.
Warning .They are nice and thick..026.
No stepping on them..026 dosn't come back.
The best pick for sound there is.

| I really like the Newman fingerpicks for steel. I can't use them on banjo or dobro, but on steel they feel fine. Not too impressed with the Newman thumbpick though. I've found the Zookie M-20, or the medium Golden Gate thumbpick works the best for me. Some steelers like the old Nationals. Some like Dunlops, Kysers, etc. Every hand is different. |

| I need a straighter tongue when I play dobro and the Newman's are bent too far up. Funny huh? I tried them on dobro and banjo, and they just didn't fit. |
