They look like they're close to playing without picks as I've seen.

Interesting. Haven't seen those. They are barely there aren't they?

I have had Propik Fingertone picks for several years though. The split wrap with the cut out blade that lets you feel the string with your finger. I use them sometimes for standard 6 string guitar...depends on what I'm doing.

Strange looking. I wonder how they would work without following the tips of my fingers. I have been using Newman JF finger picks for more than 25 years now. Smile Smile Smile Smile

My curiosity got the best of me and I ordered a set. I haven't received them yet though.

Yea, I tried these a couple of years ago...they now have been in a drawer for a couple of years.

The don't stand up to the rigors of steel playing...have a tendency to ride-up over the nail no matter how tight you fit them. Might be better for nylon strings.
Pro-pik is closer in design to a standard steel guitar pick.
